Explanation

The yearly costs total $9,800 + $12,500 = $22,300. The aid package totals $11,000 in scholarships and grants plus $5,000 in work-study, or $16,000; neither is a loan that must be repaid, though work-study requires Jolene to work. The remaining cost is $22,300 − $16,000 = $6,300, which she could pay from savings or parental contributions, or cover with a student loan. Thus B is false because the offer lists no loan requiring repayment.
