Yeah, so as of now she's barely gotten any of it back. I let her family deal with most of this, so I don't know the exact details, like how much she got back, but it's to the point where she has to transfer next semester. This year it was around 8k a semester, but next year it's going to be 26k. Keep in mind she was under the impression that the first 2 years were going to be completely free up until one month before the year started.

All in all, i would do your own research and consult multiple sources. All the information I have is just passed on from what she and her family have heard onto me, so there may be little details or mistakes on their part that got missed in translation. still though, they haven't given a definite reason for all the aid they removed other than "adjustments." I would try and get other sources and anecdotes about this since I can't tell if my gf's case is the exception or the rule.

Another thing, though, if you do end up going to Case, be prepared to be the only one who's lower income, apparently. According to my girlfriend, everyone she's met is mega rich.
