<p>@calmom yes, I did, It is called the No Barriers program. I believe they are promising no loans for students. UChicago is one of my tops, but like you said, it is very hard to get into. </p>
<p>As for need based aid, I believe I’ll probably qualify for at least 1/3 of tuition, counting all FASFA (which probably won’t be much) and whatever the school gives. Last year, I believe my parents made 35k after all expense and everything. We have a household of 5. However, my parents do have around 60k set aside for the first 2 years of college. </p>
