<p>Is your FAFSA EFC $30k? I doubt Reed will lower it- since they don’t offer merit, I don’t think they can go below what the federal formula shows.</p>
<p>While my oldest did get her FAFSA EFC met with subsidized loans and grants, we also know several people who were unable to attend because the aid package was not enough.</p>
<p>Reed uses the PROFILE as well as their own forms & while additional information can be shown on PROFILE, my impression is that it is used more to clarify assets and monies that can be accessed to pay tuition, rather than as a way to make the student eligible for * more* aid.</p>
