Sample Aid Packages
We know not all students and families have the exact same financial situation. That’s why we encourage you to read through all the examples in this section – you may find parts of several examples that resemble your situation.
At our Lutheran colleges and universities, we know
that every student is unique – and that family situations differ
greatly. That’s why every one of our member colleges has active,
responsive programs for student financial aid to help you make
attending a Lutheran college an investment you can manage.
We also know that the sticker price for higher education can be
daunting. With that in mind, we thought that it might be helpful
for you to see some of they ways in which individual students have
received financial aid. You will see how our member colleges respond
to the needs and resources of individual students and their families.
Keep in mind that the cost of attendance will vary from college
to college.
The simplest framework for understanding need based financial
aid is:
Total Cost of Attendance
(tuition, room and board, books and expenses)
Minus
Expected Family Contribution
(EFC- determined by FAFSA and Profile)
Equals
Demonstrated Need
