Why did the student I had last year not get FWS this year?

Employers FAQ
A student's eligibility is based on financial need. One of the components necessary to determine financial need is the "expected family contribution" or EFC. The EFC is determined using a congressionally-approved formula applied to the results of the student's need analysis form. The formula takes into account many variables, most of which do not remain constant year to year.
