财务需求和奖励信息

The information you provide on the FAFSA calculates what is known as your Expected Family Contribution (EFC). EFC由2023-2024年FAFSA确定. 从2024-2025年FAFSA开始，该法案将于12月9日发布. 31、2023年，EFC将被取代 学生资助指数(SAI). UWF, along with most colleges, uses the EFC as the basis for awarding need-based financial aid. The EFC measures your family's ability to contribute to educational costs but is not necessarily what you are asked to pay. 

出席费用(COA)包括学费和杂费, 食物和住房, 书籍及用品, 个人支出, 和运输. 这个总数因学生而异, 视乎入学状况及住宿安排等因素而定. 

在学生被录取之后, the financial aid office uses UWF’s "cost of attendance" and the EFC to determine your eligibility.  Your eligibility for financial aid is calculated by this formula: 出勤费用 (COA) - Expected Family Contribution (EFC) = Financial Need.

• If you do not plan to enroll full-time, you must notify the Office of 金融援助 and 奖学金. If you do not plan to attend for the semesters awarded, you must notify us. 你的经济援助资格可能会改变.

• Your enrollment status at the end of drop/add will determine if an adjustment to your award is required. Your award will not be increased as a result of a late add (courses registered for after the official drop/add period).

• Undergraduate students receive financial aid for undergraduate courses only. Graduate students must be enrolled in graduate courses or undergraduate courses annotated for graduate credit. 

• 你的经济资助只适用于在UWF学习的课程. 如果你选择注册一门或更多的课程作为临时学生, you should contact the Office of 金融援助 and 奖学金 regarding the effect on financial aid eligibility.

• 重复课程的规定适用于联邦财政援助接受者. Federal aid can be awarded to repeat a course one time (if you previously passed it); however, 如果一个课程是重复的，得3分^rd 时间，课程将不计入联邦财政援助资格. Please contact the Office of 金融援助 and 奖学金 if you must repeat a course (that you previously passed) for a 3rd time.

• Federal regulations dictate that financial aid only be awarded for courses that count toward the student’s degree.  额外的课程, 或非必修课, are not funded and cannot be used to determine enrollment status and financial aid eligibility.

• 未成年人不能获得第四章或大多数国家援助. Only courses required for your current major and your degree program are eligible. Courses required for a minor may be eligible for financial aid if they also fulfill core, major, 或者你学位的选修要求. Financial aid issues arise when minors are added or attempted to be completed after students have completed all major and core requirements and have earned the minimum number of earned credits to graduate.

• 如果你旁听一门课程，那么这些时间就可以 not 计入所需的最低入学状态.

• 被火博体育办公室分类为 "与学位" 没有资格申请经济援助.

  • You will be required to complete entrance counseling if you are a first-time borrower.
  • 如果还没有决定是否接受直接贷款，那就先接受吧. 你可以拒绝它，直到它被支付.
  • Half-time enrollment in degree applicable hours is always required to borrow federal loans.

  • The amount awarded each semester is the maximum you may earn during that semester (first day of classes to last day of exams). 你将每两周收到一份薪水， 不是一次性付款. The hours/week designation after the Federal Work-Study award is only a guide for the student and supervisor. Following those hours precisely may result in under- or over-utilization; therefore, you are advised to check frequently with your supervisor regarding hours worked and hours remaining in each semester's award.
  • 你必须在你的奖励信中填写联邦勤工俭学附件, 在指定期限内, 接受/拒绝奖项. 您将在稍后的日期收到有关工作安排的通知.
