SAI is an eligibility index number that college’s financial aid office uses to determine how much federal student aid you would receive if you attend the school.
A negative SAI indicates you have a higher financial need. For example,
if you have SAI of -1500, you’ll qualify for a maximum Pell Grant award assuming
you have not exhausted your lifetime amounts and meet all student eligibility
requirements.
