Additional Information

At ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½, 100% of our students receive financial aid. We are committed to making college affordable and providing you the best resources to get the help you need. High school guidance offices and libraries often have the best resources for local opportunities. Students and parents may qualify for employer assistance, veterans benefits or other outside assistance. All students who receive outside aid must notify the Office of Financial Aid.

Institutional scholarships require a student to maintain full-time enrollment and are limited to eight semesters (four years) of eligibility. Generally, institutional financial aid and outside scholarships cannot exceed the cost of attendance. ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ reserves the right to reduce institutional aid in the event that a combination of federal, state, and institutional gift aid exceeds tuition.
