Financial Aid Eligibility Overview
Eligibility for financial aid is determined using the information provided through the FAFSA. Financial aid is categorized into two types: need-based and non-need based.
Need-Based Aid: This includes grants and subsidized loans, and the amount you can receive is based on your Student Aid Index (SAI) and your cost of attendance.
Non-Need-Based Aid: This includes unsubsidized loans, available to all students who meet the eligibility criteria for financial aid.
Once your eligibility for financial aid has been determined, you will receive an award offer notification by email.
