I understand that financial aid might vary somewhat each year because of changes in a family’s financial situation. However, how common is it for “real” aid (grants and scholarships) to be reduced after the freshman year? One of our concerns is our child receiving a good financial aid package for freshman year since that will be a factor in where she attends – but then seeing major reductions in aid the following years, after she is “hooked.” Is this common?
