When do we know our financial aid package?

They’ll meet 100% of need. It just depends on your grants/loans ratio.

I graduated with $32,000 in loans and I’m paying them back on a 10-year plan. I’m currently doing a fellowship that only pays me $25,000/yr before taxes. My parents wanted me to defer but I decided to pay off both loans since I want to know what it’s like to live on a budget. So far, it hasn’t worked out too poorly. So, I guess if I can pay off $32,000 in loans on a $25,000 salary, so can you.
