College Financing Plan (CFP)


Introduction

Regent provides College Financing Plans to both Graduate and Undergraduate students. The estimated figures on the College Financing Plan (CFP) are meant to help students easily compare financial aid amounts offered by different institutions and make an informed decision on the investment in their education. Regent Award Academic Plan information is used to populate fields and calculate amounts on the CFP. The standard Graduate and Undergraduate College Financing Plan .pdf templates are used and attached to an email template upon communication generation. College Financing Plan communications require school-specific information for the .pdf templates, a school-specific email template, and school-specific filter requirements.
