Financial Aid
The Financial Aid Department handles financial aid for all students. Financial Aid personnel can answer questions and provide information about financial aid programs, the application process, and related deadlines.
There are many types of financial aid available to assist students who qualify. All applicants are encouraged to explore the availability of financial aid to fund their education through federal agencies. Please refer to the chart under Financial Aid Programs for information on available Federal, State and institutional aid programs.
The financial aid programs available at the College provide assistance to students whose financial resources are insufficient to meet the cost of their education and who wish to finance part of their educational costs. When financial aid does not cover the entire tuition cost, monthly payment arrangements may be made with the Finance Department.
Planning and applying ahead for financial aid programs can help you obtain an education, which might otherwise be outside your financial reach. We at the financial aid department are aware that financing your education may be of concern to you: we hope we can respond to your concerns by providing you with information to complete this process.
There are many financial aid programs that may be available to you. These programs will help you meet your educational cost. When Financial Aid does not cover the entire tuition cost, monthly payment arrangements may be made with the Finance Department.
