  • right now i am at a communtity college finishing up my degree in general education. i will graduate this year and i want to go onto a university, but dont know if i can afford it. i am married, and poor. i do fine in this college off of grants but university tuition is much more expensive. can i get enough money from a fafsa to at least cover the tuition? i dont want to do loans if i can help it

  • Answer:

    The only thing FAFSA can qualify you for other than loans and work study is a Pell Grant, and max for that is $4700 per year. Universities may give you grant money of their own, but you won't know until you apply. At the vast majority of schools a loan will be necessary.

The max in federally backed student loans should cover tuition at a state school in your state. They will generally NOT be enough to cover tuition at a private school.

Grants given by FAFSA should be able to cover most public schools tuition. It will certainly not cover private schools. People are generally given about $2000-$7000 or so per year only. So, you should search for universities that isn't so expensive if you don't plan on getting loans.
