I got financial aid packages (grants + work study + minimal loans) from non-ivies (Northwestern and Wellesley) that will allow my parents to pay a couple thousand less than our EFC. I was really surprised.

But I also got a financial package (from my state school...) that was 28k in loans.

And don't even get me started with UMich..
