When considering what financial aid is available for a student, the UC Merced Office of Financial Aid staff must determine an applicantâs dependency status using information from the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) (www.fafsa.ed.gov).
Best Answer: The Emancipation Proclamation greatly impacted the South. Plantation owners lost many of their slaves; thus losing their crops. Agriculture was the backbone of the economy of the South. The freed slaves went North and joined the Union Army which was a major factor for the North winning the Civil War.
Emancipation also meant to stress the fact that all of the black slaves in the US (both north and south) are free people now. President also addressed people and soldiers explaining them that when a region of the confederate state or a whole state is taken; all of the slaves should be treated as free man and freed.
