OverRunwithsons - one of the best sites for starting to look for information is finaid.com . They have a calculator that lets you enter your number to get an idea of what your EFC would be. They also have information about the various different types of grants (Pell, Seog etc) and loans (Stafford, Perkins, plus etc). Some loans are for students & some for parents. Some are based on financial need and some are not. Some you have to start repaying immediately and some you do not have to start repaying until after graduation. Here is the link to the finaid page about loans:
