I need a second pair of eyes on this please. I have an EFC of 3142, but the financial aid dept. says i only get 500 in a grant. Does this amount sound correct? With the federal loans, grant, and scholarship I was awarded, I am still 5500 short. I looked into the payment plan option which wants a large amount up front. We live paycheck to paycheck as it is and after the needs of my three kids there is very little if anything in the bank. I worked last year and it made my EFC so high we couldn't get anything until we did a change of circumstance since i am not working due to daycare being 10k last year... all my money goes there! Any advice or input on this subject is welcomed! Thank you for reading this in advance.
