 "Gage Marquez's dream is to become the first in his family to go to college, get his degree from the University of California at San Diego, and eventually become a cardiologist.He nearly cried tears of joy when he found out he got in.

But then he and his parents took a look at the financial aid award. He was given a grant for a little less than $3,000. And the school, which determines how much a student can take out in federal loans, will let him borrow just $6,800.

That still leaves his parents with a bill of $18,000 for the first year alone.
