Need Analysis
The U.S. Department of Education uses federal methodology to calculate how much each
student and/or family is expected to contribute toward post secondary educational costs.
This procedure is called the Need Analysis.
The formula ensures that no matter where you live - in a big city or a small town - your
financial aid will be calculated fairly. Of course, there are differences in family
circumstances, such as family size, number of children attending college, and differences
in educational costs from school to school. The need analysis takes into account these
different circumstances.
Information from your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) will be used to
calculate how much you and your family are expected to contribute, according to the
federal methodology.
