[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, To answer another question. Yes. She applied for financial aid by filling out a FAFSA. There is no way I can pay what they calculate at our EFC. I wonder how they come up with that number. I mean, it’s not a matter of if I’m frugal and don’t go on vacation and keep driving my 5 year old car I can swing it. It’s like literally there is no way I can come up with that much money per year.[/quote] The aid offer is unlikely to come back lower than the EFC. Plenty of people can't afford the EFC they are quoted--it really isn't a statement about what the family can afford, it's about how much aid the family is due, given their circumstances. Given how little aid there is to go around, and how expensive school is, these aren't the same.[/quote]
