Federal Methodology: An Analysis of Farm Families and Asset Equity Removal.
Turner, Charles
Journal of Student Financial Aid, v27 n1 p21-30 Win 1997
Comparison of federal need-analysis formulas for student financial aid in 1992-93 and 1993-94 focused on elimination of home/farm equity from calculations, parent contributions, and Pell Grant awards. Results suggest higher unmet need and lower Pell Grant awards, and imply that the most needy students may lose gift assistance to more affluent applicants. Policy implications are examined.
