The College stands ready to help students who are willing to help themselves and whose families will contribute as their income and assets permit. It is expected that those who receive a portion of their financial aid as an outright grant or scholarship would be willing to assume responsibility for repayment of a loan to complete their college careers and should also expect to earn a portion of their educational expenses. The following information is intended to provide a broad overview of the different types of financial assistance available at Miami-Dade. Parents and prospective students are strongly encouraged to contact the Financial Aid Office at any one of the five campuses to obtain additional information regarding any of the aid programs listed. Availability of certain types of financial aid is dependent upon the student's immigration status.
Financial aid is available for both college credit and vocational credit programs.
