How does Manhattan Tech decide how much money I will receive?

Answer

According to federal regulations, Student Aid Index (SAI) is subtracted from the allowable Cost of Attendance (COA) to determine financial need. This determines how much need-based aid you may qualify for. To determine how much non-need based aid you can receive, Manhattan Tech takes your COA and subtracts any financial aid you've already been awarded. It is the policy of the Manhattan Tech Office of Financial Aid to award students their maximum eligibility in all available fund categories.
