What information do I need to use a college planning calculator?

To use a college planning calculator, you typically need to provide information such as the expected cost of tuition, room and board, books and supplies, transportation, and personal expenses. You will also need to provide information about any savings or investments you have set aside for college, as well as your expected family contribution (EFC) as calculated by the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Additionally, you may need to provide information about potential scholarships or grants that you may be eligible for. The specific information required may vary depending on the calculator you are using.
