<p>How do I now how much I'm receiving from FAFSA?</p>
<p>You don’t receive money from FAFSA. Its just a tool the government provides, for students to provide financial information to schools.</p>
<p>It CAN tell you if you are eligible for government money, like a PELL grant of about $5k, if your “efc” is less than about SK, or how much need is likely to be met if you get accepted to a need blind, full need met school, like Harvard.</p>
<p>shrinkrap made a typo…she meant to type…</p>
<p>If your EFC is less than about $5k, you’ll get some Pell Grant money up to $5500.</p>
<p>You might also be given a student loan up to 5500 (if you’re a frosh).</p>
<p>What was your FAFSA EFC?</p>
<p>Where will you be going to college?</p>
