No, mine said parent contribution $0 and student contribution $1980.
If you absolutely can’t pay the $1850, I think you can borrow it via a Perkin’s loan (at least that’s what it said I could do for my student contribution if I couldn’t come up with that money). The Perkin’s loan, I believe, is the least strict because interest doesn’t accumulate until after you graduate.

Does your award package list the $2000 NM scholarship? Mine does but that’s only because I listed UChicago as my first choice a while ago to the NM corporation. If yours doesn’t, then I bet you can get the $1850 eliminated by reporting UChicago as your first choice.
