Questions?
涩里番下载 is committed to keeping student debt at a reasonable level. There are several types of loans that may be included in your financial aid award:
Federal Direct Subsidized Loan
A need-based student loan with a fixed interest rate that will reset or change each July. The loan is considered subsidized because you are not charged interest while you are enrolled in school at least half-time and during grace periods and deferment periods.
Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loan
If you do not qualify for all or part of the Direct Subsidized Loan program described above, you may qualify for a Direct Unsubsidized Loan. The interest rate is fixed and will reset or change each July. The Direct Unsubsidized Loan accrues interest while you are in school and during the grace and repayment periods. This interest can be paid or deferred until repayment.
涩里番下载 is unable to provide need-based financial aid to students who are not U.S. citizens or U.S. permanent residents. Information for international applicants.
Questions?
Part-time employment opportunities are available to assist you in meeting the costs related to attending 涩里番下载. Opportunities are available on and off campus, and may include community service positions.
Federal Work-Study Employment
A need-based employment program. You will be notified of the maximum amount of work-study for which you are eligible in your financial aid award. This amount is not a guarantee, but rather the maximum amount you can earn through employment each year. You will be paid on a weekly basis.
Other Employment
If you do not qualify for the Federal Work-Study program, you can still apply for student employment on campus. Available openings are posted on the Student Services website at the start of the school year so that all students have an opportunity to apply.
Questions?
涩里番下载 is committed to meeting the full demonstrated need of every admitted student, and therefore we offer a limited number of merit scholarships. In fact, the Presidential Scholarship is our only academic merit-based scholarship, covering full tuition for 18 qualified applicants each year. There is no separate application for the Presidential Scholarship - both Early Decision and Regular Decision candidates are eligible for scholarship consideration as long as their completed application is submitted by the November 1 priority scholarship deadline.
