UConn doesn’t meet need. Our if the 3,700 college’s in the US, only about 80 do.

100% need covering full COA CANNOT include parent plus loans, only grants, scholarships, work-study, and the basic federal loans which is 5.5k for freshmen.
Net cost is (tuition, fees, room, board) - (grants, scholarships). Net cost mustn’t include loans.

That 'financial aid ’ offer is insulting and dangerous. Good for you not to take the bait, and see it for what it is!

A 25k/year loan for someone making less than 60k is insane. 100k in debt for an undergraduate degree is insane no matter how much money you make.

Where else have you applied and been admitted?
