So i received a very generous package from BU. My EFC is 20k and I received approximately 42k in financial aid (33k grant + loans and work study)
While they have met my EFC, the issue is that the EFC is not reflective of what my family can afford. A variety of factors (such as one unemployed parent + an above average financial year for the other(real estate)) have resulted in us having an EFC much higher than sustainable. For me to be able to attend i would need to received roughly another 10k in aid (hopefully in grants) for me to be able to attend. If given, I would love to attend BU.
My question is how do I go about asking for some more financial aid? I am planning on visiting in the next week or two for reference. Advice much appreciated
