<p>Your FA as a fr will be based on the year 2010. I’m not sure how scholarships determine financial need, some likely use FAFSA, while others may use their own methodologies. Perhaps other members with some experience could chime in here.</p>
<p>Be aware that at 100k/yr income, you will be on the bubble as far as need based FA and should definitely run both FAFSA and Profile calculators to get some idea of your status. It’s too hard just to say from income, as other factors come into play such as, home equity (Profile only), investments, number in family, etc.</p>
<p>Also keep in mind that your FAFSA EFC only applies to Federal funds. Distribution of Institutional funds (those of each college) usually use the Profile which collects additional information. And with the Profile, while the same information goes to all schools, each school uses their own FA policies and calculations to determine your need. So you may have a wide range in what you are expected to pay depending on what schools accept you.</p>
