Calculate Income Basis

The tool starts by calculating per capita income from raw data. You just feed it the total family income and how many people are in the household, and it spits out that crucial number. This calculated baseline is necessary for every other step. It provides the core financial metric needed to understand your starting eligibility point.

Determine Scholarship Status

Once you have the income base, the next call determines the actual scholarship tier. This function takes that per capita number and immediately tells you if the applicant qualifies for Full or Partial aid. It's a definitive status check based on published financial rules, so you don't waste time guessing what your chances are.

Pinpoint Available Programs

The calculator then cross-references the student’s ENEM score, their public school status, and the determined scholarship tier. This function spits out a clear list of courses they actually qualify for. If you're in a lower tier, it automatically restricts options to only those available programs; otherwise, the bonus points from public schooling help boost access.
