Where are the boundaries to the brackets used to determine how much my parents income would have to be to cause me lose aid?
Precise Boundaries are difficult to define because each family is different. Many factors are used in determining what parents are expected to provide. Income is indeed taken into consideration, but so too are assets, the size of the family, and the number of family members currently enrolled in college. All of these factors affect the parents’ ability to contribute to the cost of education.
