Middle income families that can’t afford college, don’t usually have to worry about having assets that affect EFC.
Also, PA universities aren’t affordable without merit either.
A $0 EFC student would get a $6,195 Pell Grant and $3,772 state grant.
Tuition, fees, room and board at PASSHE schools is over $20,000 and state related schools $30,000.
Pitt did start a Pell match program and tuition stayed the same last year and rose 2.75% this year for undergraduate instate students.
PASSHE schools froze tuition this year, but fees and meal plan and housing costs can still increase.
Without parent help, living away at school is hardly affordable.
