College Confidential - View Single Post - EFC = 0. What should I expect from colleges?

rockerguyasj · 01-04-2009, 04:52 PM

Well, my parents and I just finished the FAFSA today, and it said that our EFC = 0.

I realize that every college is different, but what would be the general trend on what I should expect from schools? I've applied to both my in-state public flagships (UF and FSU) and several selective/highly-selective privates that are need-blind and meet 100% demonstrated need. Am I going to get mostly loans or will most of my aid come from grants?

Thanks for your help!
