historygeek Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 I'm anxious right now. I had planned on applying for fee waivers, but (at least for the University of Michigan), my EFC is too high to waive the fee. The EFC to get approved at Michigan is $1,200, and my EFC is above that. Is this the normal standard cut-off? I'm kind of panicking about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warelin Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Each school has their own standards for what they consider to be worthy of a fee waiver. NYU just requires that you have received a pell grant during your time as an undergraduate. Harvard will waive your fees if it will cause undue hardship. Some schools will ask for proof via tax returns and the like; others won't. If a certain EFC is required, they generally stick to it since it's graduate school protocol. Private schools generally have a bit more leeway in issuing fee waivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
