How Need Is Determined
Financial need is typically assessed through the FAFSA or CSS Profile. Colleges and organizations use this information to determine eligibility for need-based awards.
Strengthening Applications
Students should complete financial aid forms accurately and on time. Providing clear explanations of financial circumstances can support applications when required.
Combining Aid Sources
Need-based scholarships can be combined with grants, work-study, and other aid to reduce overall costs.
Planning Ahead
Understanding financial aid early helps families make informed decisions.
