“Aid layering” is a spending strategy that can help you understand which funding sources to prioritize as you pay for college. This strategy suggests spending awards first and reaching for loans last—because a dollar borrowed is a dollar (+interest) that needs to be repaid. Here’s a snapshot of the spending order:

1️⃣ Need-based aid
2️⃣ Merit and other scholarships
3️⃣ 529 plans and savings
4️⃣ Household cash flow
5️⃣ Student loans
