I was awarded more financial aid from another college. There are several reasons why aid may vary. If you are an international student then it will be sent to the person who guaranteed payment of your bill. However, many colleges offer monthly payment plans as well as other tuition payment options. Parents can borrow up to the amount of cost of education minus any financial aid.
Applications are available through the financial aid offices.
Different institutions may offer other loans so be sure to contact the Financial Aid offices of the places you are interested in attending. It also has some wonderful calculators which help you to get thinking about paying for college. For additional information, check your local public library for guidebooks with listings of additional sources of scholarships.
