Financial Need Information
Do you have a FAFSA Student Aid Report with a calculated EFC (Expected Family Contribution)?
*
Yes
Yes, but I believe my EFC is incorrect
No, I am ineligible to complete the FAFSA
Your EFC is provided on your FAFSA Student Aid Report, generally at the top inside of a box next to your FAFSA filing date.
What is your Expected Family Contribution (EFC)?
Please explain how or why you feel your FAFSA EFC is incorrect and what steps you have taken to appeal this decision with FAFSA or your institution.
Please explain your ineligibility to complete FAFSA. If you have another determination letter from your state or university please let us know about it here.
Have you already received an offer of full tuition remittance from your university or college?
Yes
No
This only covers university scholarships that cover the full cost of attendance (often called a "Full Ride"). Work-study or loan offers are not considered full tuition remittance for this question.
Have you already received an "full ride" scholarship from another source that is not your university?
Yes
No
Many schools limit the amount of financial aid that can be distributed to a student after tuition needs are met and refund excess aid back to the nonprofit. If you select "yes" and are chosen as a finalist, we will work with you to investigate whether your university will accept our additional scholarship.
