Um when you apply for fasfa how do you know how much money you get? Is it when the school you are going to tells you ?

Yeah, you don't know until the schools send you your financial aid package. You can sometimes make an estimate based on your EFC (Expected Family Contribution), but I don't think that that is too accurate.
How much money you get also depends on the school though.

^^yeahh, what she said. It all depends on how much your family makes, what school you're going too, if you're working......and some other stuff.

agreed with the two above me, it all depends.

Yea, that...

^ haha agreed

you file ur fafsa and then in late march you start getting stuff from colleges and itll include your financial aid package which tells u how much ur getting based on ur tax forms and ur parent contribution and how much the school is willing to provide

The FAFSA is retarded. It doesn't take into account what your expenses are, just how much money you earn. My EFC for freshman year was like...$43,000, so off the mark, but I got about half-tuition, which was good.

That contributed nothing to the topic at hand, I just wanted to vent my frustration

Like the above have said, you'll know when the schools send it out. I've known of situations where one gives you more than the other, and people have griped to the latter to get more. The administrators actually fold to that.
