Credit for Scholarships

Students who have been awarded financial aid are required to pay any amount not covered by the award by the established semester payment due date to avoid being charged a late payment fee. The Office of Student Accounts must receive written notification of any outside scholarship from the organization before the credit can be given towards tuition and fees.

College-Wide Financial Assistance

Student Loans are available to students whether or not they have demonstrated financial need. Students interested in applying for a loan must first complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) by April 1. Once the Financial Aid Office has received the FAFSA data, they will package the student. The package will indicate whether or not the student is eligible for the loan and all pertinent loan instructions will be enclosed.

In addition to the FAFSA, a Summer School Information Sheet must be completed with a copy of the summer registration schedule attached. Students must register for ALL summer session courses before submitting the summer information sheet. Graduate students must register for at least three credit hours in order to be eligible for federal aid programs during the summer. The summer financial aid processing period is a very tight one. It is absolutely essential that the submission deadline dates are met and all requested information is submitted immediately.

Additional assistance is available in the form of alternative loans. Individual eligibility will vary according to cost, need, other aid that is received and the credit worthiness of the borrower. A list of recommended, alternative loan programs can be obtained by contacting the Financial Aid Office at (757) 221-2420.
