Student Financial Aid

Estimate your EFC

This interactive calculator estimates how much you and your family are expected to contribute to the cost of your college education.

Calculations are based on several factors, including assets and income, marital status, and family size. Your Expected Family Contribution (EFC) determines your eligibility for student financial aid from various sources—federal, state, and your school.

Why register, why log on? When registered users log on before starting this estimate, the data entered will automatically be saved for future viewing or adjustments.

Estimar el EFC

Important
This tool does not conform exactly to the official formula used by the US Department of Education to calculate your EFC.

As a result, these estimates may differ from the official Expected Family Contribution generated by the U.S. Department of Education based on information provided on the FAFSA.
