About the Financial Aid Pledge (2009-10):

Who qualifies for the pledge (in addition to common requirements)?
Up to a family income of $50,000, the financial aid package will not include loans. Cumulative loans are capped for students with total family incomes up to $100,000 who demonstrate financial need.

How is EFC determined and used?
Institutional Methodology. The minimum student contribution is $2,500 for freshmen.

How much academic year work and/or need-based loans are included?
Up to a total family income of $50,000, the package includes work-study but no loans. However, a student may elect to take out loans to cover EFC or replace work. Up to a total family income of $100,000, cumulative loans are capped at $15,000 but only if they are used to meet calculated need (federal subsidized Stafford loans or Perkins loans). Loans that a student takes out to replace EFC would not count toward the cap.

Does the offer account for the full student budget?
Yes.

How are outside scholarships handled?
Outside scholarships reduce unmet need, then loans and/or work-study, then grants.
