Live with single parent and younger sibling. Parent makes around $145k, however when we completed the EFC calculator for Brown, it said EFC is $92k per year, which seems very high.

Is your other parent alive? If so, Brown and many other private schools will require both parents’ financial information for financial aid purposes (UCs and CSUs only require the custodial parent, which is the parent providing the greater amount of financial support).
