Athletic Scholarship and Financial Aid

I have a general question that I hope someone that has a scholar-athlete currently can answer.

For easy math sake: If your EFC is $15,000 and your child receives a “half” scholarship that would take you down to $20K (say Full COA is $40K). Would you pay $15K or 5K? Does that make sense? I know that with academic scholarships they are typicall taken off before the financial aid (in other words the scholarship is used against the families EFC).

Hopefully someone will understand my question???
