Regarding loans - federal student loans can be reduced, accepted or declined. You are not obligated to accept if you don’t want to. Same with parent plus loans. UF puts up the amount that you could get if you want it and are approved for it. Most scholarships including BF and grants, if offered, will automatically be accepted and you won’t need to do anything with them. Once the FA stuff is loaded, you will see at the top of the page the anticipated cost of attendance, the amount the parent is expected to contribute, FA offered, gross financial need, etc…

@needabreak - UF is not generous with instate students so I can’t even begin to speculate about OOS students. I would not count on much, if anything and then be pleasantly surprised if you do get something. Good luck.
