Financial Aid

   

Financial Need and Cost

 

Financial Need: If you meet all of the eligibility criteria, the Financial Aid Office will calculate how much financial aid you are eligible to receive.  This formula subtracts the Expected Family Contribution (EFC) from the estimated educational costs, called the Cost of Attendance.  The dollar amount remaining is your financial need.

Your need will be funded with various federal and state programs, plus any other resources for which you are eligible.
