I got my award letter and it stated that i would get 22,460.00 yearly from the school. The only problem is that its $40,716 (everything included; direct and indirect educational expenes). I know that there is no way for me to afford to go to this school with what they are giving me a year. My question is how might i go about asking for more aid. This is my number one college too so i could prob add that somewhere.
Any suggestions on how to go about this will be great.

Some schools might have an appeals process with certain criteria. Also, after awarding everyone, it is possible (but not probable) that they have additional funds.
You should call the school and check, but unfortunately, if you qualified for more aid, and more aid was available, they probably have awarded it to you already.
However, if this is your first choice school, and you think that the education and experiences you get from it would be worth the debt, you should consider private loans. Student loans are relatively low interest. Also consider applying for scholarships.

Before making a request, I suggest looking in the school university catalog to see what awards that they offer and aquire about them specifically. Also, four year colleges usually have funds they award to students as scholarships. This, too, should be included in the catalog. Just look for statements that required students to show hardship in paying school. Good luck.

My son grew to become into provided a artwork-learn activity his freshman 365 days of school, yet did no longer take it, because of fact he did no longer % to do telephone prospecting for faculty scholars on behalf of the college- it grew to become into "too very like telemarketing" for him. He did get a artwork-learn activity that grew to become into precise in line together with his computing gadget technology substantial, and while the computing gadget maintenance grew to become into outsourced to a private business company, he have been given a activity with the business company at an exceedingly good salary for a school pupil. yet you will possibly desire to do what's precise for you and not possibility your GPA. in line with possibility you will possibly desire to locate out what the activity is in the previous you turn it down- is it working interior the college cafeteria or is it something extra in line including your substantial, which you will possibly be able to additionally use as activity adventure and an employment reference after commencement?

well it depends on where you go to school and how much money you make (or your parents). I am sure you can take out loans from your bank for this or try sallie mae. they are the company where almost everyone at my school gets their loans through.

You can do a few things to pay the rest of your tuition. You can take out student loans, your parents can take out parent loans and you can do work study.
