I didn't know at the beginning of the year that I would be going to college, so I didn't apply for financial aid early enough I think.

Congratulations. On the FinAid front fill out your FAFSA anyway, and talk to the financial aid people. You've likely missed deadlines for some of the better stuff, but you can still get loans and other forms of assistance.

I would depends. A lot of grants have either deadlines or limited funds that go on a first come first served basis. Loans are always there though, if you qualify.

Congrats! Be sure to take full advantage of the Hatrack procrastination study method. Served me well throughout my years at school.

What Lyr said. That's a very generous grant package.
Is work-study an option?
Edit: Also, for a private school, those charges are on the low end. But there's no question that attending a private school costs more than attending a state school. Your (parents') tax dollars at work!
