Finaid’s custom calculators help determine how much school will cost, how much students and families need to save and how much aid is needed to cover education costs.
Featured Calculators
Loan Payment Calculator
The loan payment calculator can be used with Federal education loans (Direct/Stafford and PLUS) and most private student loans to help you understand your monthly payments, interest, and total cost over the lifetime of the loan. This student loan calculator can also be used as an auto loan calculator or to calculate your mortgage payments.
