EFC Schedule
Regular Payment Schedule for Determining Scheduled Awards
For Pell Grants, indicates student's eligibility from the Department of Education.
 

What is the EFC?
The Expected Family Contribution (EFC) is the amount a family can be expected to contribute toward a student’s college costs. Financial aid administrators determine an applicant’s need for federal student aid from the U.S. Department of Education (the Department) and other sources of assistance by subtracting the EFC from the student’s cost of attendance (COA).

What is the source of data used in EFC calculations?
All data used to calculate a student’s EFC come from the information the student provides on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
