Office of Financial Assistance

Financial aid is available through federal and private loans for students who need additional financial support. Applicants will automatically be considered for a limited number of scholarships. Both federal and private educational loans require students to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. The FAFSA helps lenders determine a student’s eligibility for aid and the amount of aid needed. State and institutional aid sources also require a completed FAFSA. Please refer to the link below for further loan information (including loan opportunities for international students).
