low income + saving = no financial aid?

<p>Will my parents’ saving and investment (stock, IRA) affect my eligibility for financial aid even though we’re low income family?</p>

<p>The lower the income=the lower the EFC from savings. Do the sample Fafsa to get the figure.</p>

<p>The saving and investment will definitely make a difference - your EFC will be higher. You can go to the financial aid calculator on collegeboard.com to get an estimate.</p>
