EFC Questions

[UnicornBlast]

<p>I filled out the FAFSA calculator, and received a EFC of 40, with a difference of 47,000. I'm not quite sure I understand clearly what's going on. This means I'd be expected to pay 47K? </p>

<p>See <a href=“https://fafsa.ed.gov/help/fftoc01g.htm[quote]Your”>https://fafsa.ed.gov/help/fftoc01g.htm

Your</a> EFC is not the amount of money your family will have to pay for college nor is it the amount of federal student aid you will receive. It is a number used by your school to calculate the amount of federal student aid you are eligible to receive.

<p>You best to use the school’s NPC to see how much you expect to pay.</p>
