I recently got accepted into the summer term for my freshman year and I was told that I needed to submit a 2016-2017 FAFSA application. I completed the application and my EFC was about $800. I just dont understand why it came out to be high, when my 2017-2018 FAFSA EFC was $0, and all the information was obviously identical because I used the same application information. I’m sorry if I come across as spoiled or anything, I’m really not trying to sound like I’m complaining about such a low EFC in comparison to others, but I come from a household with a single parent and 4 children. FAFSA was really the only option I had into getting into college, so I’m just really worried about the pricing.
Also I guess I’ll throw this question in here too, but if your only attending summer term do you still have to pay for the entire annual cost of a school?
I.E: if a school is priced at $17,295 annually, and I attend just the summer term, am I paying the full annual price or is it a different price for summer term kids?
Thank you so much! O:-)
