<p>I know I’m in a totally different boat than most of you guys since I applied to NYU RD so I expect to hear back from them on April 1. But I’m worrying that if I get in I probably won’t be able to cover the costs at all. My family’s EFC is 0 since my single non-college educated mom doesn’t hold a big salary paying job,but she tries and manages to pay whatever bills so at least were not on the street. But will NYU look at that and say “Meh we’ll give you have half take it or leave it.” I’ve heard they don’t give the best FA. Is anyone in a similar financial situation that got accepted ED?</p>
