GLOSSARY

Cost Of Attendance (COA): The total amount (not including grants, benefits, and scholarships) that it will cost you to go to school during the 2021-22 school year. COA includes tuition and fees; room and board; and allowances for books, supplies, and transportation. It also includes miscellaneous and personal expenses, such as an allowance for the rental or purchase of a personal computer; costs related to a disability; and reasonable cost for eligible study-abroad programs.

Expected Family Contribution (EFC): A number used by your school to calculate the amount of federal student aid you are eligible to receive. It is based on the financial information provided in your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). This is not the amount of money your family will have to pay, nor is it the amount of federal student aid you will receive. 

Federal Work Study: A federal student aid program that provides part-time employment while the student is enrolled in school to help pay his or her education expenses. The student must seek out and apply for work-study jobs at his or her school. The student will be paid directly for the hours he or she works and the amount he or she earns cannot exceed the total amount awarded by the school for the award year. The availability of work-study jobs varies by school.

Grants, Benefits, and Scholarships: Student aid funds that do not have to be repaid. Grants are often need-based, while scholarships are usually merit-based. Occasionally you might have to pay back part or all of a grant if, for example, you withdraw from school before finishing a payment period. Benefits criteria are set forth by the entity awarding the funds.

Loans: Borrowed money that must must be repaid with or without interest. Loans from the federal government typically have a lower interest rate than loans from private lenders. Federal loans, listed from most advantageous to least advantageous, are called Direct Subsidized Loans, Direct Unsubsidized Loans, and Parent Plus Loans. You can find more information about federal loans at www.studentaid.gov
