What other AFFORDABLE acceptances do you have right now?
We don’t know if you have been “cheated” as @coolguy40 states. Actually…I’m not sure you are being cheated at all.
First you need to answer some questions. Honestly…no one here can help you get $60,000 plus a year in aid from BU but with these answers, we can help perhaps to help you with college.
- Are you a U.S. citizen?
- Did you complete your financial aid application forms on time? When did you submit them?
- Were you selected for verification...and is that process completed.
- If you are a U.S. citizen, was that your FAFSA EFC that was $0...because if so, and it was accurate...you would have gotten $6000 in Pell Grant money and a $5500 Direct Loan.
- Are your parents self employed?
- Do your parents own property in addition to your primary residence?
- Are your parents divorced? If so, did your non-custodial parent complete the NCP Profile?
- What “maximum financial aid” did you expect from Boston University? The school does not guarantee to meet full need...so if you expected $60,000 or more...not likely you would have gotten that.
- Where else have you been accepted...and are any of those schools affordable?
- What are your SAT or ACT scores, and your GPA?
