NYU Financial Aid really sucks???

<p>I noticed this past year when looking at the posted received financial aid, many people received half of their expected need. So if like me you were full need, or -56,000, then you got half of that in federal aid and nyu scholarships and the rest is covered in loans. </p>

<p>Course if your top 5-10% you might get the presidential scholarship. I believe if your full need that’s worth $25,000 but I’m not sure.</p>

<p>But for the most part don’t even hope for more than $27,000 a year in non-loan aid, because most people simply don’t get that much.</p>
