Additionally, over 82% of our students receive some sort of financial aid such as federal or state grants, scholarships, work-study, or loans.
Financial Aid
The Office of Financial Aid offers professional staff to help you and your family find the best way to finance your education. Student financial aid programs are available for our students through various sources but it starts with completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (known as FASFA). Our FASFA deadline is March 15th.
Scholarships
We have scholarships ranging from $100 up to full tuition. Our scholarship process is competitive and offers the very best students an opportunity to be honored for their accomplishments. To be considered for a scholarship you must complete a supplemental form included in our application for admissions.
Other Sources
Other sources of aid come in the form of work study, external scholarships, tuition waivers, federal student loans, and alternative loans. Be sure to do your research and ask questions about these sources and any others you may find.
