<p>Did anyone do the FAFSA and only go for gift aid? If so, are you pleased with your aid package? Would you do the same if you had the chance to next time?</p>
<p>I would not recommend skipping the loans and WS boxes. You will always have an opporutunity to refuse them after you receive the award. If you don’t check the boxes, you will limit your options later.</p>
<p>Don’t expect the difference to be made up in free money.</p>
<p>Thats what I did. No need for me to take out loans that I have to pay back + interest when I can beg my parents. It all depends on your situation. If you don’t have the money elsewhere, check it. If it’s not smart for you to pay interest when you don’t have to, don’t worry about it.</p>
