Financial Aid Information
Highlights
Financial aid comes in the form of grants, scholarships, work-study, and loans. Your financial aid package may consist of any or all of these resources depending on a variety of factors. In addition to meeting basic eligibility requirements, students must file a FAFSA and be making satisfactory academic progress (SAP) to be eligible for most forms of financial aid. Awards are made in compliance with federal, state, and institutional policies and are initially awarded based on the assumption of full time enrollment for each student. After the enrollment reporting is completed each semester (census period), and students’ initial class attendance is determined, awards may be adjusted and or cancelled based on the students’ final enrollment status.
