UCB Financial Aid (specific question)

Colleges & Universities University of California - Berkeley

<p>I am not too experience with financial aid and was wondering if the following is correct for my current UCB financial status. I feel like if I do decide to go to UCB, I will have to take out like $20k in loans… the amount is so ridiculous for my current family income :(! I am considering to ask them to re-evaluate my financial aid package again, but I want to see if it’s necessary since I am not sure if this is the most UCB can give out to any students or if there are any possible errors :(.</p>

Thanks a bunch in advance!</p>

<p>thats exactly how much i got, my parents icome were ~ 20k a year</p>

<p>and so i think that is the max that they give out…i really dont think its that much, considering the fact tat your parents only have to pay 6k a year…which is very possible, im just speaking for myself, im not sure about your situation…plus, i would work over the summer to save up some money</p>

<p>Thanks for the response UC123cali :D! Anyone else with similar situation?</p>

<p>So I guess, I need to start saving up then since that might be their max :frowning: ! Are you planning on dorming 123cali? It looks so costly :frowning: !</p>
