Estimate and Plan for your Share of College Costs

KHEAA's College Aid Calculator (CAC) estimates your educational expense based on the cost of the school that interests you and prepares a Paying for College report that helps you zero in on how much you may need to borrow. Keep in mind: this calculator only provides estimates. Your school's Financial Aid Administrator (FAA) is the final authority on the exact amount of your EFC.

Here's what CAC can do:

• Produce a personal Paying-for-College Report for your future reference,
• Estimate public and private college Expected Family Contribution (EFC),
• Project an inflation-adjusted EFC any number of years into the future,
• Show instant before/after what-if answers (inheritance, bonus, etc.),
• Compute education loan payments for Stafford, PLUS, Perkins, and others,
• Provide easy-to-understand help messages next to every data entry field.
