Dreaded Financial Aid award package came today...

[mudflaps]

So, cost of attendance is about $25000, my awards package is for $15000. The package includes my college's grant, ohio choice grant, national guard schollarship, and federal stafford.

The difference is $10000, and my parents have never paid a dime for anything. Are there any more low interest loans or other options I have to cover the gap? It seems the longer I stay at this school, the more they screw me on my fafsa every year.

(other than taking a job at a magic shop and begging for money)

I vote for the magic shop. School loans are ghey.

jgood - there's a simple explanation to this. You need to be well educated for your college to be paid for. If not, you must be a minority whos family makes 0 money and you must apply to an all non minority school.
