Federal regulations require that these benefits be counted as a resource to meet a student’s financial need. Therefore, the Financial Aid Office must incorporate the Community Facilitator benefits within the financial aid award. We try to do so in a way that will not penalize the student by meeting any unmet federal need and by replacing Federal Work Study. Depending on the individual’s financial aid award, some Santa Clara University Grant may be replaced, but the total overall package will not be reduced due to a student becoming a Community Facilitator.
