Every student applying to the College is encouraged to apply for Financial Aid. Upon reciept of your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), we will determine if you qualify for federal, state or institutional grants, federal work-study or federal student loans, and will put together a personal aid package based on your eligibility.  You should check our list of common application errors before completing the FAFSA.

In order to be considered for Title IV federal aid, you must meet all eligibility requirements.

The primary responsibility for financing an undergraduate college education rests with students and their parents. Eligibility for financial aid is based on the following formula:

Two important things to note

1. The total amount of financial aid students receive, including outside resources such as scholarships, cannot exceed their cost of attending the College.
2. It is possible for students' EFC to be greater than their cost of attending the College; in this case, they do not demonstrate eligibility for need-based financial aid. However, financial aid programs such as the Stafford Unsubsidized Loan, the Federal Parent PLUS Loan, and private loans are available to students regardless of their financial need.
