They’re optional, and if you choose to utilize them this year, we’ll work with you over the summer to get them going.  \nRoom & Board  \nThese figures represent the average room and board, and may vary based on your housing and meal plan choices.  \nYour Scholarships, Grants and Awards  \nWe’ve considered any Merit Awards you earned upon Admission, and we used the FAFSA information you submitted to determine your eligibility for state, federal or institutional need-based aid.  \nYour Total Credits  \nThis figure demonstrates the total aid available to you if you decide to utilize your federal student loans.  \nEstimated Balance Due  \nThis is the estimated amount you’ll be billed for the year; half in the fall, half in the spring.  \nDirect Costs  \nThese are the charges you’ll see on your billing statement. This is the price you’ll pay in tuition & fees for full-time enrollment, up to 19 hours.  \nNEXT PAGE  \nPayment Plan  \namount due in installments; follow the link on your letter for details, including sign-up deadlines. The earlier you enroll, the smaller your monthly payments will be!  \nOptions for covering  the balance due  \nThese aren’t your only options, but they are the most commonly used by students and families.  \nFederal Parent PLUS Loan  \nMany families use the PLUS loan to cover the balance due for the year, as well as to ensure funds are on hand to cover those indirect costs – books & supplies, transportation and personal expenses-throughout the year. LiketheStudent Loans, the Parent PLUS loan is optional, and we’ll work with you later on setting up the amount that’s right for you.  \nPay the Balance in Full  \nYour aid options are just that – options. If you  \npayment plan in a given semester, just pay the amount due. Your payment method has no bearing on your aid or loan eligibility in subsequent semesters or years.","cbCaifUrgZxUexcj","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifUrgZxUexcj","pdf",879046,"English","# Cost of Attendance\n## Indirect Costs\n## Direct Costs\n## Room & Board\n# Loans and Aid Eligibility\n## Loans\n## Scholarships, Grants and Awards\n## Total Credits\n## Estimated Balance Due\n# Next Steps and Options\n## Payment Plan\n## Options for Covering the Balance Due\n## Federal Parent PLUS Loan\n## Pay the Balance in Full","[{\"question\":\"What does the letter define as cost of attendance?\",\"answer\":\"It describes the total annual amount to attend school, including indirect costs for typical day-to-day expenses and direct costs shown on the billing statement.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the letter determine scholarship, grant, and award eligibility?\",\"answer\":\"It considers Merit Awards earned upon admission and uses the FAFSA information submitted to assess eligibility for state, federal, or institutional need-based aid.\"},{\"question\":\"What payment options are provided for the estimated balance due?\",\"answer\":\"The letter offers a payment plan with installments and sign-up deadlines, options commonly used by students and families such as Federal Parent PLUS Loan, and the option to pay the balance in full.\"}]","Sample Financial Aid Letter | PDF",1789566670]
