<p>I got ripped off. UChicago gave me an initial grant estimate of $29,000. Then when the actual financial aid package came, it suddenly changed to $22,000.</p>
<p>The only papers we submitted between the two periods that we received these documents were papers that indicated that my mother’s income went DOWN from $23,000/year to $17,000/year. Why is Chicago ripping us off so much? Do they not understand that we can’t pay this much?</p>
