How this calculator works

The calculator applies tuition-restricted aid first, then employer tuition support, then other grants to remaining costs. It caps modeled support at the costs it can cover and shows a remaining amount rather than a negative bill. It does not estimate financial need, FAFSA eligibility, taxes, loan payments or a school’s aid-stacking policy.

Educational planning information. Individual program rules and your school’s aid package control the actual result.
