which university gives me more financial aid ?

Walter Scordino: Don't judge a school by the dollar amount they give you in scholarships, but by the amount you will have to borrow to attend over the course of your 4 years there.

Faustino Mellerson: No approved college in the USA accepts unlawful immigrants. Even much less is any unlawful immigrant eligible for economic help. If somebody "made" it into an college, it may be by using fraud.

Irma Poiter: If your family makes under $60K/year, private colleges that meet 100% of need are likely to give you more money.For low income kids a private school can be the best deal, especially if they are good students. The ivy league and other top schools that have large endowments are the most generous schools in the US, often letting you graduate with no loans.While public colleges will make sure you can attend with aid, usually a large amount will be in loans and work study....Show more

Lester Haschke: It's kind of hard to compare them. Private universities are! generally more expensive so the financial aid you'd get compared to a public school would be more because of the cost, but still about the same percentage if you did the math. If you apply to all the schools you want and are accepted they'll send you a financial aid packet showing you what they will give you.

Shemeka Laker: Kind of a hard question to answer, but as Belle above is suggesting, what you need to have are the financial aid offers from the schools you are considering - and their overall costs. You can take the total of grants/scholarships per school and deduct it from the overall cost. This will at least let you know how much more you are going to have to finance and pay to attend. It can be misleading to just look at the size of the scholarship or grant alone. If one school gives you a $15,000 scholarship to attend, but costs say $30,000 to attend, you still need another $15,000 to finance. On the other hand a cheaper school may only offer you $5,00! 0, but they charge you a total of $15,000 a year. Their schol! arship is smaller, but you will need to pay less in the end. You need to know what you can afford to pay, and how much it will cost you in loans, and how much money it will take to repay those loans when you leave school. These are better ways of looking at the cost, in my opinion....Show more
