Financial Aid Package
So me, the nervous wreck about paying for college, finally got her financial aid package last week! It was sitting on the table for when I got home from Upward Bound. I’ve been so nervous because my being able to pay for school depends on one or two thousand dollars varying I receive or don’t receive in financial aid. Thankfully, this year, I actually got an extra $1000 for my Minnesota State Grant thanks to my FAFSA. Plus the fact I’m not getting a meal plan and Kerst is cheaper than living in the Suites, even though I have less outside scholarships this year, it still evened out to the same amount I needed to take out in loans, which is covered perfectly by Stafford loans. Whew!
