Financial Aid Information

IMPORTANT WEBSITES FOR FINANCIAL AID INFORMATION

Did you know that Federal Student Aid produces dozens of informational resources that are available online? You can access informational resources at https://StudentAid.gov/resources or you can order publications at https://edpubs.gov. Remember, financial aid includes grants (free money that you do not have to pay back), student loans (which you do have to pay back with interest) and work study programs (get a job on campus). Most programs do require financial need except one of the loans (Unsubsidized Direct Loan), which does not. There is also a PLUS or parent loan which parents can get if they qualify for it.
