Congratulations to the poster whose D got a great Syracuse package and a spot of the waitlist. A wonderful school and so sweet when it’s affordable.

Crank, Syracuse is a very good school. It does not guarantee to meet financial need, nor does it for every student. You can look up the particular averages in that regard on College Board or USNWR. But those are averages and it can differ, given the student’s stats and where they fall on Syracuse’s scale.

You should also run your family’s financials through estimators to see about what they say about your need. Oftentimes families are shocked and how much they are expected to pay. If you have divorced parents and steps, the FAFSA calculator only takes into account your custodial parent and spouse’s financial, but you will have to bring in the others with PROFILE.
