My parents make about $100,000, I submitted my fafsa, applied for grants etc. I had good grades and I felt that I met the grant criteria. Fast forward to today I go talk to a family friend that works as the director of grants. He tells me that grants are state money so they follow a congressional formula. If your parents make above a certain income then you're chucked out consideration of receiving the grant. I asked if I could do work study and he said the same formula applies for work study since it's federal money.
SO are there any other NTers like me not getting any outside financial support in their pursuit of higher edumacation?
What other forms of aid helped you? Should I even consider applying for work study?
I'm not familiar with what my school offers, so I'm sure "NT Knows".
