At any school, your financial need is determined by the standard Cost of Attendance (COA) minus your Student Aid Index (SAI). The federal government standardizes the exact calculations used to determine your SAI. Your contribution is assessed in the same way regardless of the school you attend, but the actual awards vary by institution because of the differences in cost.
Cost of Attendance (COA) minus Student Aid Index (SAI) = Financial Need
