@Madison85 I just checked, and our EFC is $45,611. Which is very interesting, because Rochester expected us to pay $67,168 this coming year, and they purport to meet full need. Why the discrepancy? After a FA appeal, they threw us another $10K, but that’s still a $12K difference.

As far as the schools to which she applied for transfer, they range from $45K to $71K. Two of the higher ticketed ones she had applied to last year, and they told us verbally they would match the merit awards given at that time, which would make them affordable.
