The Federal Student Aid Estimator tool launched<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnasfaa.informz.net%2Fz%2FcjUucD9taT0xMDIzODk3MSZwPTEmdT0xMDA3MDA3NjE0JmxpPTg5ODMxNzM5%2Findex.html&data=04%7C01%7Clori.boyd%40okstate.edu%7C9569de5dd13c432f3dd208d983413bde%7C2a69c91de8494e34a230cdf8b27e1964%7C0%7C0%7C637685138471933669%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=h%2BHW28UtZGiH3b2T4cHucH0cvs9ytQp%2FTuapBcUz6Ao%3D&reserved=0> this week to help students and their families calculate the amount of financial aid they may be eligible to receive. The new tool replaces the FAFSA4Caster and allows students to receive an estimate of their aid eligibility without having to log in or create an account. The estimator will also give students access to information about the Expected Family Contribution (EFC) and its role in determining their federal student aid, and a link to the College Scorecard to help students identify the school that fits them best. Non-binding estimates that students receive will include eligibility for Federal Pell Grants, work-study funds, and federal student loans. Users who go to the old FAFSA4Caster will be automatically redirected to the new estimator.
