nothing and I had two in college at the same time. Believe me we are low middle class people. The one at Umass applied to University of Hartford recently, maybe wants to transfer and they were $10,000 more than Umass but did offer $3,000 financial aid scholarship but it would still be more than Umass and we live in CT. My daughter knows a bunch of people who are going to Umass free. So we are paying the price being out of state for that to happen. Most people from CT do not get into Uconn for some reason. My daughter's H.S. graduation class had 30 people applying to Uconn that were way up there in the grades and only 5 got in.
