Generally, many people are not aware of the opportunities for financial assistance that are available. Aid may be available to those who are able to pay for some of their educational costs as well as to those who need a more substantial level of support. The Financial Aid Office, located in the Foster Administration building, room 105, welcomes inquiries from both current and prospective students and their families. To assist applicants to the university, the office participates in a variety of on-campus and regional financial aid presentations and seminars.
Detailed information is given each year in the Admissions Bulletin publication.
Some students at the university receive a full package of financial aid. Others receive a partial amount of support. The eligibility for a need-based financial aid award is based on each individual applicant's financial need, which is determined in the financial aid application process. Both the amount and the type of aid awarded are related to the financial needs and circumstances of the individual. The Financial Aid staff is committed to helping applicants and students with all phases of the aid application and award process.
