When you are able to prepare for your studies by creating a solid financial plan, then you are able to “set yourself up for success.” The goal is to ensure that you are financially prepared so that you are able to focus on your education. Please consult with your Admissions Director–they can assist you and your family and guide you through various financial options.
Our Admissions Team can work with you on a one-on-one basis to help you create a financial budget. They can help you assess your income, possible student loan amounts, other potential funding amounts and expenses during your time with us.
We have on-site Student Loan Administrators who will help you through the Student Loan process step-by-step. If a student has been in default from a previous loan, our incredible Student Loan staff can help you navigate the sometimes overwhelming Student Loan system and get you back on track.
The College is also committed to helping students in need. To that end, the College issues over one million dollars in Tuition Grants each year. There are Tuition Grants available for specific start dates up to $4,000 to help offset costs.
