Better be clear about what “demonstrated economic hardship” means.
If your Expected Family Contribution is $25K, but your parents are only willing to contribute $10K, then it may be difficult to claim economic hardship just because there is gap between available resources and costs.

So, what is your EFC? Is it much more than $10K?

And what does “50%” mean? Is it 50% of the full COA, or just 50% of tuition?
