Did I s***w up??

Question

So last year I filed a FAFSA application and my EFC was $20,000, this year I filed and my EFC is $7,025 did I do something wrong???

Answer 1

possibly... you could have the financial aid office review it to make sure.  Or it could be your income (or your folks income if you have to report it) changed some.  Or the number of people in the household is incorrect or changed.   Either way you aren't eligible for federal Pell grant.
