The U.S. Department of Education has developed a methodology
that measures your family's financial strength.
This calculation is called your Expected Family Contribution (EFC). Your EFC is based upon the asset and income
information you listed on the FAFSA and is the amount the federal government
feels your family can contribute to your higher education expenses. MSOE will use your EFC to determine what
institutional, state, and federal funds you are eligible for. Please note, a student's financial aid award
may not necessarily equal the difference between the educational expenses and
the EFC.
