Thanks all for your input.
EFC this year is 1471, last year was 1472.
Also, without going into too much detail, DD took medical leave this past spring semester; she attended but was short the full course load… She will, hopefully, finish her degree either this fall or spring 2017. Depends on if she can get the last courses. She will be classified as half time.
Originally, when I did the FAFSA she was not entered as a college student for the 2016/2017 term, but the school told me to go in and change that on the FAFSA as she will still qualify for financial aid for the semester she attends, just don’t know exactly when in this upcoming school year.
I had assumed all of this would have an affect somewhere, but the EFC on the SAR ended up for DS as listed above.
The Pell Grant from his school appears to be in line w/ only one college student.
That is why I asked if the schools determine the Pell Grant or it is based off the FAFSA.
