My total costs for SLU, minus housing (I don't have a dorm), is about $17,500 per semester. My financial aid is from the Pell grant, a Missouri state grant, federal loans ($18,000 worth), and the SLU transfer scholarship (which varies depending on your GPA) which has a minimumm req GPA of 3.0 (which is $24,000 over 3 years) but can go as high as $36,000 I think. Anyway, my financial aid is just barely enough. I'll need a job to pay rent for a place and food though.

I will get the highest GPA scholarship. I have a 4.0. I'm not sure how much federal Pell I will get, my parents make >70,000, but they don't pay for anything, and I mean anything. I'm kind of scared to pony up that much money. I've never seen that much before, I haven't lived with my parents in three years since I was moved out at 17. Differences, to say the least. Are there any scholarships that SLU offers its students?

I live in an oil town. There's a petro engineering program here. Minimum GPA for entrance is something like 3.95. Because it's an oil town, it's actually more or less a bidding war by the local oil companies upon graduation, and they can expect (thats 4 years away from their P.Eng, mind you) somewhere between $120-150k Canadian starting.

I still am on their insurance, so unless I want to be health insurance-less, which i don't, I still have to list them. I've tried, so, so hard to find a way around it. No one seems to have any advice on how to get around it. Fuck, I even wrote a letter to my congressman about how holes like that were letting students with potential and without the ability to repay to be limited in their educational endeavors.
