I was offered a financial aid package from Penn with a $8,500 family contribution and a $2,500 student contribution from summer earnings. A few days ago I filled out the FAFSA and it projected my EFC to be about $6,500. I assumed that the school EFC would be less than the Feds, but now I’m a bit confused. Will Penn update my packaged using the FAFSA data? Should I try to get an appeal? Anyone else please share your situation.
