<p>My daughter received her aid package from SU and will now be applying for several local scholarships. If she receives any of them, will her SU aid be lowered at all? Our hope is that if she can get some private scholarships, she wont have to borrow as much in student loans. But I'm afraid they would reduce her grant award instead.</p>
<p>Hope I can help. My son’s financial aid package consisted of a Syracuse scholarship, a large Syracuse grant, federal student loans and work study. When he recieved outside scholarships, they first reduced his work study, then his loans, (unsubsidized first then subisdized). His sholarship and grant were not reduced. Good luck!</p>
<p>Thank you! That makes us feel much better.</p>
