The Means Test and Levels of Assistance of our school fee remission scheme

1.

Our fee remission scheme will use the "Adjusted Family Income" (AFI) mechanism of the Student Financial Assistance Agency as the means test to assess the eligibility of a family for student financial assistance and its assistance level. The formula is as follows:

 

     

    		 Gross annual income of the family
    AFI =
     

    Number of family members + (1)
  • Gross annual income of the family includes the annual income of the applicant and his/her spouse; 30% of the annual income of unmarried child / children residing with the family if applicable; and the contribution from relatives / friends if applicable.
  • The members of a family normally refer to the applicant, his/her spouse, unmarried child / children residing with the family and the dependent parent(s) who are supported by the applicant and/or his/her spouse.
  • For single-parent families of 2 to 3 members, the ‘plus 1 factor’ in the divisor of the AFI formula will be increased to 2.

 

2.

The AFI eligibility benchmarks for various levels of assistance in the 2011/12 school year are listed below. Please note that the AFI is not the average monthly income of a family.
