The University of Charleston offers a comprehensive financial aid program. Many students miss the opportunity for financial aid during their college years because they do not apply.
Every student is encouraged to apply in order to determine eligibility.
The Financial Aid Office coordinates all assistance awarded to students including academic scholarships, grants, loans, student employment, vocational rehabilitation and external scholarships. Institutional and federal campus-based funds may be awarded to students carrying 6 or more hours per semester. Audited courses will not be included for determining financial aid eligibility. Students interested in being considered for financial aid must complete the application procedure each year. All application materials must be received by March 1 for full consideration for the following academic year.
