Some colleges have more generous need based aid than others. It’s very possible the private school just has deeper pockets.

Was this all need based aid?

Yes, make an appointment with the financial aid folks. Likely they will tell you that you need to apply again annually for need based aid, and that your aid each year will be based on the financials on the financial aid forms for that year.

Most colleges don’t do a bait and switch thing…but if your finances do change, your need based aid might as well.
