what does efc 5174 on the fafsa mean??

Question

when I finished ... and my fafsa said my efc was 5174 what does this mean?

Answer 1

Where on the form does this appear? (what page/line?)

EFC stands for Expected Family Contribution.
Now, I need to find the 5174 on the form to be able to help you. Where did you see it?

I am just making a guess. The EFC- Expected Family Contribution for you and your family may be $5,174. To be sure, I suggest you call the Helpline: 1-800-433-3243. Get it straight from the FAFSA people.

Good luck
