This document summarizes a financial advisory presentation on saving and paying for a child's college education. It discusses factors to consider like the costs of different types of colleges, available financial aid options, federal and private student loans, tax benefits, and savings vehicles like 529 plans. It also addresses developing a financial plan and goal for paying for education.
Financial aid refers to funding intended to help students pay for college costs including tuition and room and board. It makes up the difference between what a student and their family can afford and the total cost of college. Financial aid comes in two forms: needs-based aid such as grants, loans, and work-study that are based on financial need; and merit-based aid such as scholarships that are based on academic or other achievements. To qualify for needs-based aid, students must fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) using their W-2 tax forms and their parents' W-2 forms to determine their estimated family contribution toward college costs.
Financial aid comes in the form of scholarships, grants, loans, work-study programs, and other sources to help students pay for their educational costs. The goals of financial aid are to assist students, evaluate families' ability to pay, distribute limited resources fairly, and provide a balance of funding options. To qualify for financial aid, students must be accepted to an eligible program, plan to enroll full-time, meet eligibility requirements, and maintain satisfactory academic progress. The financial aid office determines eligibility and packages aid based on the cost of attendance, expected family contribution, and student need.
