1 parent might lose job anytime, how will FA work in my situation?

Hi, so I was accepted to Vanderbilt ed1 (binding) and I got a 40,000 grant which leaves about 25-30k (our efc is 30k) for me to pay out of pocket. My parents can pay this, however, one of my parents job is closing down (won't get into detail) but nobody knows when they're going to lose their job..once my parent loses their job, We are essentially losing 120k of our 150k income. If this happens before I deposit/pay the 25-30k, my parents won't be able to pay the amount because we have to save the money/use it for rent, etc. if this happens, will vandy update the grant amount or cover the full need? With my income right now, I'm pretty certain I won't get anything from FAFSA and I'm trying not to take out loans but once my parent loses their job I don't know how I'm going to be able to go to college unless they update their FA offer... Sorry if this is confusing, if you need clarification please let me know I'm extremely worried
