7 Financial Aid Why is there a difference in price between public and private institutions? The cost of providing a higher education is generally the same at independent colleges and universities as at public universities. For example, both types of institutions incur costs associated with building and maintaining classrooms, residence halls, computer facilities and libraries; paying faculty salaries; and providing career and counseling services. However, private institutions charge a higher price, or tuition, because they do not receive an instructional subsidy from the state. Apply to colleges that best fit personal needs, regardless of price. The ability to pay for a college education is likely to be an important factor in selecting a college or university. However, the price of a particular institution should not prevent a student from applying to the schools of his or her choice. Every student should apply to the colleges that best suit his or her academic, social and personal needs, regardless of the price, because financial aid can make it affordable to attend. A variety of financial aid is available. College financial aid programs help families meet the costs of education beyond their demonstrated ability to pay. Institutional need-based and non-need-based financial aid (scholarships, merit, athletic, leadership awards, etc.) combined with state and federal scholarships, grants, loans and work-study programs make up a financial aid package and help defray the cost of attending college. The college will make every effort to compile a suitable financial aid package for the student and family so that the price of a college education does not become an overriding factor in choosing an institution. Complete the. Ohio s independent colleges and universities require prospective students to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (). To qualify for some state and federal grant and loan programs, students should complete the as soon after January 1 as possible. Families can complete it online at: or obtain copies of the form by contacting a college financial aid office. Some colleges and universities also require a supplemental or institutional financial aid form. Students should contact the college financial aid offices to learn which financial aid forms are required and the deadlines for submission. See the video tutorial at edu/fasfasimplification/ 7 7

AICUO Members Source of Grant Aid, Graduate and Undergraduate AICUO Members Graduate and Undergraduate Federal grants $170 million 12% 2% State/local grants $36 million Aid Eligibility Generally, a student s demonstrated need is equal to the difference between the Expected Family Contribution (EFC) and the total cost of education (which includes tuition and fees, room and board or off-campus living expenses, and books). All schools work to award aid to meet the gap between the cost of attendance and EFC, but not all have the same types or amounts of aid available. EFC does not change from school to school, but demonstrated need will. Sample Demonstrated Need Institutional grants $1.25 billion 86% Cost of Education - Family s EFC = Demonstrated Need School A School School C $13,715 $34,387 $40,146 $1,500 $1,500 $1,500 $12,215 $32,887 $38,646 Source: National Center for Education Statistics In AY , 96% of full-time, first-time freshmen entering AICUO member campuses received financial aid, averaging $24,055.

Step 5: Accept the financial aid award offered by the school you plan to attend and notify other schools that you decide not to attend so that they can use their aid dollars for other interested students. Step 6: Let your school know if you receive outside scholarships and grants.

Federal Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) The FSEOG is for undergraduates with exceptional financial need who also receive the Pell Grant.

The salary is at least the current federal minimum wage. Perkins Loan The Perkins Loan is a low-interest (5 percent) loan for undergraduate and graduate students with exceptional financial need.

Eligibility and award amounts vary by institution. Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students (PLUS) The PLUS loan is a financial aid resource available to all families regardless of their income. The loan is made directly to the parents and permits them to borrow up to the cost of attendance minus any financial aid received. The interest rate for loans for the year is 6.84%.

For the Unsubsidized Stafford Direct Loan program, which offers loans that extend beyond a student s calculated need, interest accrues when the loan is disbursed. The student may pay this interest as it becomes due, or defer payment until graduation, when the interest is capitalized as part of the loan.

For more information on this program, visit the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs Web site at: 10

The American Opportunity Tax Credit Parents of dependent students, or independent students, may claim a tax credit of up to $2,500 per eligible student with qualified tuition and fees expenses. Forty percent of this credit may be refundable for the first four years of college for degree-seeking students. Lifetime Learning Tax Credit This credit applies to tuition and fees paid for undergraduate, graduate and continuing education classes. A family may claim a tax credit of 20% for the first $5,000 in tuition and fees (less grants, scholarships and tax-free tuition benefits). Since 2003, the amount of eligible educational expenses has increased to $10,000, resulting in a maximum tax credit of $2,000. This credit is available on a tax-return basis, regardless of the number of students enrolled in postsecondary course work.

Penalty-Free IRA Withdrawals Taxpayers may withdraw funds from an IRA, without penalty, for their own higher educational expenses or those of a spouse, child or grandchild. Withdrawals can be used to pay for tuition, fees, books, room and board if the student is enrolled at least half time.

The maximum deduction is $2,500. It is phased out for joint filers with an adjusted gross income between $120,000 and $150,000, and single filers with an adjusted gross income between $60,000 and $75,000.
