Financial Aid Home Page    Useful Links     Financial Aid Tips The first step in the financial aid process is completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). By completing the FAFSA, you are applying for all need-based financial aid including grants and loans.   The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is available to complete online. The online version is the fastest way to apply for financial aid. If you prefer, you may fill out a paper FAFSA, available from your high school guidance counselor or our office. To receive consideration for all federal and state funds and need-based scholarships, submit the FAFSA directly to the Federal Student Aid Programs by May 15. Temple's Federal School Code is 037263. See Tips for Completing the FAFSA and for a quick overview.   The federal processor calculates your Expected Family Contribution (EFC) using the information you provide on the FAFSA and a congressionally mandated formula called Federal Methodology. The Expected Family Contribution measures your family's ability to contribute to educational costs. Cost of Attendance (COA) includes tuition and fees, room and board, books and supplies, personal expenses, and transportation. Your eligibility for need-based aid is calculated by this formula: Cost of Attendance (COA) minus your Expected Family Contribution (EFC) equals your Financial Need. Temple recommends that all applicants submit the FAFSA, regardless of their financial need.   You must complete a new FAFSA or Renewal FAFSA each year to be considered for all available financial aid. You can apply or renew online. Questions? Ask you advisor.       Stephanie Devakumar  Financial Aid Director stephanie.devakumar@templebaptist.edu (513) 851 -3800 (x3008)
