Something I've been wondering....

[conuly]

How, exactly, does financial aid work? Do they just say "this is what you can pay, and we'll pay any amount more than that"? Or do they go "this is how much you get, no more"? Or what, exactly?

Edit: See, even though I fill out my FAFSA every year, I have no idea how it works.

Someone on my F-list works in the financial aid office of a university, but I can't remember who. If I remember, I'll ask him...
