Assorted resources to help students and families understand how to pay for college and repaying student loans. For first-generation college students and their families, determining how to pay for school can seem like a daunting task. To help, here are two published guides that highlight tips to make more college affordable and .where to find scholarships.
The Rising Scholar Team will help students and families unpack the difference between all types of student financial aid such as gift aid, loans, and work study awards.
Colleges establish estimated costs of attendance (COA) for groups of students. COA estimates basically estimate the total amount it will cost a family to go to school - usually expressed as a yearly figure - and includes all tuition, fees, on-campus room and board, and assorted fees (such as books, transportation costs, etc.).
The Expected Family Contribution (EFC) is a number that determines students’ eligibility for certain types of federal student aid. This number is calculated with the EFC formulas, which use the information that students provide on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®).
As your partner, Rising Scholar's goal is to make the college admissions process as clear as possible...and that includes the "How To's" with paying for college. The first part is understanding the financial terms and assorted acronyms The Rising Scholar uses that may not be commonplace for families.
At The Rising Scholar, it is imperative that students and families are laser-focused on adhering to a strict financial aid timeline. Our students quickly realize that the financial aid and the college admissions timelines often work hand-in-hand with one another.
