<p>I have never heard of the amount of aid (scholarship) decreasing over four years–unless there is a marked decrease in need. If your EFC changes (increases) than I would expect there could be a revision to your package.</p>
<p>But if your EFC stays within a similar range, your aid should too. I would certainly call up the Financial Aid office to ask them about this–but that is my understanding based on my D’s friend’s experience over the last 4 years. D rec’d merit aid (talent) which remained the same each semester. I never did find out from anyone what the requirements were for her to maintain her talent scholarship. Financial Aid didn’t know when I asked them.</p>
