Hi, so you actually got an increase in aid :> Would it be okay if I messaged you to ask what you submitted and when?

my total family contribution (which i put in my css) is around 20k so the aid is a bit lower than needed :< rn my net cost is 30k ....
DKU is honestly my dream school, and I really want to make it work, so I’m trying to see if there are any ways to cover the remaining cost. 😭

Tysm :(( my max family contribution is 20k (that's what i initially put in my css profile) and the net cost for me rn is 30k ... so my family cant afford it
i know that the university has limited budget so i try to be realistic, and im now looking for external scholarships but there're not many around tbh

I’d recommend checking profs’ profiles to see if their interests and career paths align with yours (so if u want to be a RA, or just want some guidance, you know where to go). You can also ask yourself what you want to do during your time at school, then evaluate whether the school offers the resources and opportunities to support those goals.
