fin aid packages

<p>I just got my f. aid packet. Turns out, that according to GW, I don’t even qualify for need based aid. But there is no way my parents can pay 50,000 a year. GW is my dream school, I can’t image going anyway else. I don’t know what to do. Any suggestions? I dont’ understand how so many apathetic students, merely because of their stats, get half tuition scholarships, (believe me, I talked to a few who didn’t even care), and then people like me, middle class, can’t afford to go. This entire process is so screwed up. Anyway, if anyone has any suggestions about what to do, I would grealty appreciate it. Thanks!</p>
