My son received $12,000 Founders Scholarship and loans. Our EFC on the FAFSA was just under 38,000, but on the financial aid pages on MySlice our contribution is listed as almost $85,000! That’s more than the cost of attendance. Phone call to financial aid counselor was completely useless–the counselor was rude, impatient, and proceeded to list off every dollar we entered on our CSS profile. He told me they don’t use the FAFSA at all. Congrats to everyone who got their need met–clearly we didn’t.
