Overview

Financial aid is offered in the form of loans, grants, scholarships and work-study and our report is broken down into these four categories for the 2022-23 academic year. The data collected encompasses all enrolled FAFSA and non-FAFSA filer students for the 2022-23 academic year (Summer II 2022, Fall 2022, Spring 2023 and Summer I 2023). Most students are eligible for some type of financial aid and we encourage all students to annually file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). 

Loans 

Loans are considered borrowed funds that need to be repaid with interest. Federal loans often have the best interest rate, but private alternative loans are another great way to supplement financing educational costs.

Grants

Grants are gift funds that are typically offered based on financial need that do not need to be repaid. 

Scholarships

Scholarships and grants are types of financial aid that do not need to be repaid. They are a great way to pay for educational costs and may reduce the need for student loans. Scholarships are supported by the ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø, the state and external sources. 

Student employment

Student employment can aid in paying for indirect costs. Student employment offers the opportunity to explore career options, obtain transferable skills, work with faculty and staff who understand student life and helps to ease financial burdens.
