What is Financial Aid?
Financial aid helps students and their families pay for college. This assistance covers educational expenses including tuition, fees, books, and supplies. There are several types of financial aid that may be combined into your financial aid package.
Financial aid is only offered for courses that count toward completing your degree. If you register for courses outside of your program, your financial aid awards may be impacted. Learn more here.
Financial aid packages may include multiple types of awards and must be applied for each academic year.
