Financial Aid accuracy?

The Pell and Fl assistance are need based so you will have to apply every year, but if your financial situation stays about the same, the money will be there in future years. I don’t know the Turner grant, so ask if it is renewable.

BF will pay by the credit ($2310 is an estimate of 30 credits per year x $77 per credit) and you’ll get it as long as you continue to qualify. You could get more if you take more than 15 credits per semester or less. You have to take at least 12 credits. I’m pretty sure it ends after 8 semesters. You can’t use it in the summer.

I think you should ask for even more! The Pell, FL Asst, and BF are not grants from UF, (don’t know about Turner), so see if UF has any more money. Did you get work study? If so, you may not need any loans. You have a low EFC and may qualify for more grants.

Congrats.
