7 Net Price Calculators A free online tool that students can use to estimate their net price to attend a particular school. It asks you questions about your family s finances and may also ask you questions about your GPA, test scores, activities and other things that may qualify you for financial aid.
8 What is Financial Aid? Financial aid is money that can help you pay for post-high school education. This financial assistance covers educational expenses including tuition and fees, room and board, books and supplies, and transportation. Some aid needs to be paid back or earned; some aid is a gift. More than $185 billion in aid is available from federal/state governments, colleges/universities, and private organizations.
9 What are the different types of Financial Aid? Grants & Scholarships Work Study Loans Financial aid awards may include a combination of the various types of aid.
10 Grants and Scholarships Grants and scholarships are often called gift aid because they are free money financial aid that doesn t have to be repaid. Grants are often need-based, while scholarships are usually merit-based. Grants and scholarships can come from the federal government, your state government, your college or career school, or a private or nonprofit organization.
11 Work Study Federal Work-Study provides part-time jobs for undergraduate and graduate students with financial need, allowing them to earn money to help pay education expenses. Work is typically available on a first-come, firstserved basis at participating colleges. Undergraduate students are paid hourly and can only earn up to their total Federal Work-Study award.
12 Student Loans A loan is money you borrow and must pay back with interest. If you decide to take out a loan, make sure you understand who is making the loan and the terms and conditions of the loan. Student loans can come from the federal government or from private sources such as a bank or financial institution. Loans made by the federal government, called federal student loans, usually offer borrowers lower interest rates and have more flexible repayment options than loans from banks or other private sources.
13 Federal Loans Federal Stafford Student Loan Subsidized- must demonstrate need, maximum amount $3,500, repayment delayed as long as student is enrolled half-time Unsubsidized- repayment begins after loan is taken out Federal PLUS Loans Parent loan- there is a credit check No loan maximum Payments begin 60 days after loan taken out Federal Perkins Loan Loans are offered by the schools themselves- not all schools participate Loans are subsidized- repayment is delayed as long as student is enrolled half-time.
14 Do I qualify for Financial Aid? To receive federal student aid, you ll need to Earn a high school diploma Be enrolled or accepted for enrollment in an eligible degree or certificate program Be registered with Selective Service, if you are a male Have a valid Social Security number Maintain satisfactory academic progress in college or career school Be a U.S. CITIZEN/NATIONAL or have a GREEN CARD or have an ARRIVAL-DEPARTURE RECORD or have BATTERED IMMIGRANT STATUS or have a T-VISA
15 How do I apply for Financial Aid? To apply for federal student aid, you need to complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) The information you report on your FAFSA is used to calculate your EFC (Expected Family Contribution). The EFC is a measure of your family s financial strength. Schools use the EFC to calculate the amount of federal student aid you are eligible to receive. Complete the FAFSA at The FAFSA qualifies you for federal aid, but many state governments and colleges also use this application to award their own aid.
16 What happens after I complete the FAFSA? You ll receive a Student Aid Report (SAR) via a few days after your FAFSA has been processed (if application is completed online). If there are no corrections or additional information you must provide, the SAR will contain your EFC. The EFC (Expected Family Contribution) that displays on your SAR is a calculation based on the information that you reported on your FAFSA. Your schools use the EFC to determine the amount of federal grants, loans, and work-study for which you may be eligible. Once accepted, the school will calculate your aid and will send you an electronic or paper award letter that details the financial aid you re eligible to receive. You may accept or deny any part of the award. The timing of the award letter varies from school to school. Do NOT wait until you are accepted to complete your FAFSA!
17 What can I do if my Financial Aid doesn t meet my needs? Scholarships Naviance Most current listing of local scholarships Hartford Foundation for Public Giving Open to students in Great Hartford area Fastweb Scholarship search engine College Board Scholarship search engine

CHESLA loans have a fixed 6.75% interest rate while in school Private student loans may require an established credit record. The cost of a private student loan will depend on your credit score and other factors. You may need a cosigner.
