Ok…the school is Flagler and it looks like you’re a full Pell student.

Can you clarify…

From FAFSA you’ll get $5550 from Pell and $5500 in Stafford Direct loans.

Are you saying that you’ll have to borrow an ADDITIONAL $6k per year?

If you’re getting about $11k in federal aid, how are you covering the other $13k? Are your parents saying that you have to borrow ANOTHER $6k per year and they’ll pay $7k per year?

How much are your parents paying?

As for your safety…are you saying that you’d commute to that school?
