This school does offer quite a large amount of financial aid, but you have to keep track of it because they are very disorganized and your financial aid can get screwed up.

I feel I am getting a great education for the price that I'm paying (in-state commuter with out needing to pay tuition because I did well on my MCAS tests and I am going to a state school).

The cost to attend for a full year, if you're an in-state resident, is still under 20k. It's not much more expensive for an out-of-state resident. I think SSU is hands down the most affordable four-year school in the state. For all of the services provided, you definitely get your money's worth.
