<p>" For Federal funds, there are very stringent guidelines administered by the federal government. " </p>
<p>I would certainly hope this is true… Presuming it is, how then how can one school determine the basis of need over another ? </p>
<p>Example, I have two children in college. Based on our family’s EFC, why should one child benefit from federal grants, work study and loans, and the other completely off the radar and inelligible?</p>
<p>And how can that be determined when the documents supplied , as requested even being reviewed ( as stated on website )</p>
<p>Different schools, yes…but how can it vary in such an enourmous way ?</p>
<p>Maybe it is true that listing recipients of scholarships is " no one’s business " but I have seem many public diplays of who rec’d what…whether local community, state or national level.
I don’t undersand the protocol for releasing this info and wanted to know if it is a matter of public record, or if left up to the benefactor to release such info ?</p>
