A ray of hope?
Huh. I just submitted my financial aid application for next year (yes, I know I'm terribly late), and on the confirmation page they showed my Estimated Family Contribution as *gasp* less money than my parents actually make--in fact less than my living expenses alone. I know this doesn't sound like it ought to be a big deal, but in previous years it hasn't been the case. I'm not sure what's changed, but does this mean I might actually be eligible for grants as well as loans this year?
*crosses fingers*
Oh, and I seem to have a job. It's independent contract work, so I'm not sure how many hours I'll actually end up working, but with luck it'll be enough to supplement out the financial aid income. The per-hour rate is good, so I won't need to work many hours a week, and I can be flexible as hell with scheduling.
