<h1>How did you get a Pell grant with an income of $70,000. There is no way that income would be a 0 EFC. It sounds like your FAFSA last year may have been done incorrectly.</h1>
<p>That’s the $70,000 question.</p>
<p>Frankly, this student may be in danger of having someone uncover a mistake in last year’s FAFSA and then being told that he has to pay that money back. </p>
<p>I wonder if somehow only the mom’s income was included on last year’s FAFSA???</p>
<p>(frankly, it just goes to show how naive families are about FA and EFC. For a family with an income of $70k to think that they should have a 0 EFC (pay nothing) is really unbelievable. )</p>
