We are trying to get enough funding to attend UofArkansas in the fall as a new freshman (coa=Around $24,000). The school awarded a 5000 scholarship and we receive a 1000 state scholarship but that’s all that has been offered. Oh and a 5500 loan. It’s completely my fault for not understanding this process and how competitive scholarships and funding can be. I assumed being a minorty, taking AP classes and being an honors grad would be enough, Wow was I wrong! I’m hoping I can just get through freshman year. More funding and departmental scholarships are available in the following years. I’ve left a message at the financial aid office to get information on filing an appeal to look at our medical expenses
