财政援助融资计划提供
SFAS electronically receives the processed FAFSA (if 申博太阳城 is listed as a college choice on the FAFSA). SFAS designs an estimated 财政援助融资计划提供 that details the various types of aid for which you are eligible (based on the information you provided on your FAFSA) and informs you of the details in the 财政援助融资计划提供. The 财政援助融资计划提供 and all subsequent notifications are sent to your UCID email account. 类似的, if any changes to your financial aid awards occur, 或者SFAS是否需要额外的信息, you will be notified through your UCID email account. To ensure that your financial aid disburses as scheduled at the start of the semester, you must submit any requested documentation needed to confirm your financial aid eligibility to SFAS by April 15 prior to the start of the academic year. 一旦你审查了你的经济援助Offer, you can accept or decline any part of your aid package by logging on to the Highlander Pipeline and accessing your 申博太阳城 financial aid records as instructed. (you must create your UCID before you can log on to the Highlander Pipeline.) Accepting your awards online is an easy process; students should follow the steps below:
预期家庭贡献: An estimate of your family’s financial strength and the ability to contribute, and it is measured by applying the official federal needs-analysis formula to the data submitted on your FAFSA. It is the amount that you and your family are expected to contribute toward the expense of an education.
财务需要: Refers to the 出勤费用 (COA) minus the Expected Family Contribution (EFC). Demonstrated Financial Need (COA - EFC = Need) determines your eligibility for need-based financial assistance.
援助如何计算?
The 财政援助融资计划提供s aid according to financial need, merit or both. If you are eligible for financial assistance based on your financial need, you may receive a combination of gift aid (grants or scholarships that need not be repaid) and self-help aid (loans, which must be repaid) or part-time employment either on or off campus). Any combination of awards is referred to as your 财政援助融资计划提供. Once your 财政援助融资计划提供 has been generated, you can access it via a secured link provided in the email you will receive. 资格 for many of 申博太阳城 scholarships is not based on financial need; you are automatically considered for merit based (申博太阳城) scholarships at the time of admission. 你的入学申请, test scores and high school grade point average (GPA) are the main factors used to determine your eligibility for 申博太阳城 scholarships. However, there are some scholarships that also require that you demonstrate financial need. Note: Upperclassmen are also considered for 申博太阳城 scholarships but must have a FAFSA on file for the academic year to be considered. 获得联邦和州补助金的资格, 以及一些申博太阳城的奖学金, is based on the information on your FAFSA and the general eligibility requirements of each program. Gift aid is always awarded before self-help aid. If you have remaining eligibility after gift aid has been awarded, your 财政援助融资计划提供 may also include work study and student loans. Please note that when a combination of tuition-based grants and scholarships exceeds student bill charges or the charges the award is intended to pay for, the university may reduce the scholarship amount.

入息调整上诉
Although the formula to determine financial aid eligibility is standard for all applicants, there is some flexibility in recalculating eligibility in light of special circumstances. 例如, if you or your family has experienced an income reduction due to unemployment, 残疾, 离婚或死亡, you can have your financial aid eligibility recalculated using updated information.
