I know for undergrad, they do 4-6% of parents' assets as yearly EFC. But for med school with need-based aid grants for their students, like BU SOM, what % will they expect for assets? If my family has a total net asset of 245k, will they expect 25% contribution or around the standard 5-6%? Can anyone who got a financial aid package please let me know?
