No. The Expected Family Contribution is a federal calculation that determines the amount the family (parent(s) and/or student) should pay toward the educational costs. The calculation examines the contribution by assessing prior year earnings, savings, etc. If the student or parent cannot meet the EFC because of a change in prior year income or other expenses such as medical or elementary school tuition, the student should contact a financial aid representative with this information.

Government student assistance programs are designed to supplement, not replace, family resources. If you do not qualify as independent according to government guidelines, then your parents' income will be assessed to determine if a contribution is expected. If you are married or common-law, your spouse's income will be reviewed in a similar manner. In all instances, the government will also look at how many other dependents are in the family.

The EFC is the number the government calculates that represents the amount of money they feel you and/or your family can contribute to your education. The EFC is determined by the information on the FAFSA.

This is the amount that the federal government has determined you and your parents can contribute to your education throughout the year. This amount is not "due" at one specific time but can be contributed to your educational costs in a variety of ways such as, assisting in the payment of fees each semester, buying books and supplies, or providing monthly funds from your parents or a part-time job to cover housing, transportation costs or miscellaneous costs.

EFC is the amount of money that is derived by most schools from the FAFSA (the Federal methodology) that the government says you can afford to pay for one year of college. To put it simply, the government determines how much they think you can spare each year to put into college. Some colleges also use an institutional methodology, which is accompanied by their own specific questionnaire.

The Expected Family Contribution (EFC) measures your family's financial strength, and is used to determine your eligibility for federal student aid during one school year. Your EFC will be displayed on your Student Aid Report (SAR) after your FAFSA is processed. The information you reported on your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is used to calculate your EFC. The school uses the EFC to determine your federal student aid eligibility and financial aid award.
