Yes, financial aid is available to online students, but the type of aid you may be eligible to receive will depend upon many factors. You may be able to receive grants and scholarships, loans or tax deductions for your tuition and school costs, depending upon your personal situation. Some factors that affect your financial aid status are whether you are a full-time or part-time student, and whether you are studying for credit or non-credit. Visit SUNY Smart Track to find information about the types of financial aid and how to apply.
