I’m having trouble understanding:

my mom says she has enough money saved up for almost 20k a year, but i should get decent financial aid… there is basically no income, but we are more middle- lower upper middle class



You need to go to the financial aid forum and look at some posts on how EFC is calculated. Your Expected Family Contribution takes into account savings so you will probably show little need for aid. I don’t know how you can have no income and be lower-upper middle class.
