Financial Aid Early Estimator 2008-09
Note: this is NOT a financial aid application.
This financial aid estimator can be used to determine if you might be eligible for need-based aid from Dickinson College. Financial aid eligibility depends both on the amount a family is expected to contribute to college costs from income and assets (the Expected Family Contribution or EFC) and the Cost of Attendance (COA).
Below is a link to a calculator for estimating your family's contribution toward 2008-09 college costs. After calculating your EFC, return to this web page to estimate your possible need-based financial aid award from Dickinson College. The results are for your own assistance in planning and will not be stored or accessible to the Dickinson College Financial Aid Office.
If you have not done so already, please read about the limitations and cautions before continuing.
