Financial Questions

 Write as little or as much as you need.

1-Expected Family Contribution:  Knowing that the FAFSA doesn’t always represent what family contribution will actually be, please estimate what your family intends to contribute toward your college expenses per year.  If there is a set amount per year, please share that amount.  Please provide as many details as you can.

2-Because financial need is the primary factor in choosing our scholarship recipients, please share your financial story.  Include any personal or family details that will give us a better understanding of your personal financial need.  Consider including specific family situations: a disability, one-parent family, ill health of parent, parent’s loss of job, number of siblings, etc.  Please clearly explain what amount or percent of costs you will be expected to personally contribute and what your plan is to cover the additional costs of your program.  All remarks will remain strictly confidential.
