How Much?

A How-To, without the jargon, to help you compare the cost of your college options.

Compare Your Financial Aid Awards

Many colleges don’t use the U.S. Department of Education-recommended College Financing Plan format to communicate financial aid awards to students, making comparison more challenging. Here’s a How-To to help you sort through your college options. Set aside some time this weekend; follow the Instructions; use the Worksheet. See how the cost of your colleges really compares, and how student and parent loans over four years translate to monthly payments. (Options to download or print in Fullscreen Mode.)
