The EFC Formula, 20122013 1
THE EFC FORMULA, 20122013
What is the EFC?The Expected Family Contribution (EFC) is a number that is used to determine a student’s !"#$#%#"#&'()*+()!,!+-"(.&/,!0&(-#,1((23#.(0/4%!+(+!./"&.()+*4(&3!(50-06#-"(#0)*+4-&#*0(&3!(.&/,!0&(provides on his or her Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The EFC is reported on the Student Aid Report (SAR). Financial aid administrators (FAAs) determine an applicant’s need for federal student aid from the U.S. Department of Education (the Department) and other sources of assistance by subtracting the EFC from the student’s cost of attendance (COA).
The EFC formula is used to determine the EFC and ultimately determine the need for aid from &3!()*""*7#0$(&'8!.(*)()!,!+-"(.&/,!0&(50-06#-"(-..#.&-06!(8+*$+-4.9(

:( Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG), :( Federal Perkins Loan, and :( Federal WorkStudy (FWS).
The methodology for determining the EFC is found in Part F of Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (HEA). Updated tables used in the computation of the EFC for the 20122013 Award Year were published in the Federal Register on May 24, 2011 (ifap.ed.gov/fregisters/052411FedNeedAnalysisMethodology1213.html) (76 FR 30139).
What is the source of data used in EFC calculations?All data used to calculate a student’s EFC comes from the information the student provides on &3!(;<;=<1((<(.&/,!0&(4-'(./%4#&(-(;<;=<9(

We encourage applicants to complete the FAFSA electronically because the electronic version has builtin edits that reduce applicant errors and customize the questions presented based on answers to prior questions. The electronic version also contains additional instructions and help features and allows the Department to send application results to the applicant and schools more quickly.

Who processes the application, and how is a student !"#$%&'(")(*$+(",(*&,(-./0The CPS receives the student’s application data, either electronically or on the paper application, and uses it to calculate an EFC. After the FAFSA has been processed, the CPS sends the student an output document containing information about his or her application results. This document, which can be paper or electronic, is called a Student Aid Report or SAR. The SAR lists all the information from the student’s application and indicates whether or not the application was 6*48"!&!(-0,(.#$0!,1((D)(&3!(-88"#6-&#*0(#.(6*48"!&!(-0,(.#$0!,(-0,(&3!+!(-+!(0*(,-&-(6*0E#6&.B(the SAR also includes the student’s EFC.

Note: An independent student without dependents other than a spouse is not eligible for an automatic zero EFC.
Why might a calculation of an EFC using these worksheets differ from the EFC reported on a student’s SAR? When it appears that an applicant has reported inconsistent data, the CPS may make certain assumptions to resolve the inconsistency. These assumed values, which are reported on the student’s SAR, are used to calculate the student’s EFC. Therefore, in some cases, the EFC produced by these worksheets may differ from the EFC produced by the CPS if the assumed values are not used.
In addition, to help reconcile EFC Formula Worksheet calculations with those of the CPS, all calculations should be carried to three decimal places and then rounded to the nearest whole numbers—round upward for results of .500 to .999, round downward for results of .001 to .499. Rounding should be performed so that the intermediate value that is the result of each step does not have any decimal digits.

Note: Use this additional page to prorate the EFC only if the student will be enrolled for other than nine months and only to determine
the student’s need for campusbased aid, or a Federal Direct Subsidized Loan. Do not use this page to prorate the EFC for a Federal
Pell Grant or TEACH Grant. The EFC for the Federal Pell Grant Program is the ninemonth EFC used in conjunction with the cost
of attendance to determine a Federal Pell Grant award from the Payment or Disbursement Schedule.
