Just wondering.  

Could you please state what your family makes per year and how much financial aid you received?

Mine makes 50k per year with 6 members (2 seniors, one disabled) And my dad is a retired vet with 95% disability. How much would I qualify for you think?

I am an independent. I get X amount every year. I don't really know how much exactly. It's a complicated situation

I feel so dead inside sometimes

I'm freakin' epic.

I didn't apply yet, but from the financial aid calculators, I got $0.

My family makes over 200k, however

0 efc means they're going to give you money because your expected family contribution is 0. That's what mine is (single parent on disability) and I get full pell grant, plus whatever else random funds they pull out of their asses.
