Student Aid Index (SAI)

Your Student Aid Index (SAI) is a formula-based index number ranging from –1500 to 999999. Where your SAI falls within the SAI range helps UMaine determine the types and amount of aid that you are eligible for. Your SAI is calculated using information that you (and other contributors, if required) provide on the FAFSA form.

Your SAI is not

  • a dollar amount of aid you’ll receive,
  • what your family is expected to provide, or
  • your final financial aid offer.
