Your level of financial need is determined by the formula applied when the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is submitted. The “estimated family contribution” (EFC) listed on the Student Aid Report you receive from the Department of Education will be used to measure your financial need. Your signature on this application permits the Foundation Office to obtain financial need information from the HCC Financial Aid Office.
