Initially, the cost of attendance is set for full-time enrollment.

If the number of credit hours is different than what the award was based on, the Cost of Attendance of the student must be recalculated and a new determination made of financial aid eligibility based on the new enrollment status. Any ineligible aid must be returned, possibly leaving the student with a balance.

It depends on the type of program that you will participate in as well as the type of aid that you鈥檇 like to receive. Depending on the semester and the type of program you participate in you may be eligible to use your merit scholarship and or federal aid. Please contact our office for more information.

To determine a student鈥檚 eligibility for the Summer term, a student is required to report the number of hours the student will be attending. The Office of Financial Aid will then determine the student eligibility for the Summer term. Click here for additional information.

Private loans are credit based loans for students to assist with educational expenses. As a result the student must be credit worthy or have a credit worthy cosigner. These loans are not administered by the U.S. Department of Education. Each lender can set the interest rates, loan fees and terms of his/her program based on lender parameters. Most lenders have online applications to expedite the process. Once the lender approves the loan the lender will require a certification from 91大神 to verify enrollment and eligibility. The amount the student is eligible to receive is based on cost of attendance and enrollment for the loan period or periods requested.

A parent plus loan is a credit based loan that a parent takes out on the student鈥檚 behalf. The parent must be credit worthy or have a credit worthy cosigner to be approved. - If the parent loan is applied for and turned down, we can offer the student additional funds in their name ($4,000 for a freshman/sophomore and $5,000 for junior senior). The parent plus loan amount may be up to the student鈥檚 cost of attendance based on the students enrollment and the loan period requested.

The parent loan will go into repayment after the loan is fully disbursed for the loan period. Example: a disbursement would occur for fall in August and a second or final disbursement in January for the spring term. Repayment would begin in approximately 60 days after the final disbursement or in March of the same year.

Exception: when completing the parent plus loan application, the parent can check the box 鈥渄efer鈥� which will allow the loan to defer the repayments while the student is enrolled.

Please note when applying for the parent plus loan the parent must use their FSA ID to submit the parent plus loan at

A graduate plus loan is a credit based loan available for graduate or professional level students. As a result the student must be credit-worthy or have a credit-worthy cosigner to be approved.

Applications are available at . The student may borrow up to their cost of attendance based on enrollment for the loan period requested. We suggest that a student use their annual loan limit in the federal unsubsidized loan before using graduate plus loans.. (The graduate plus loan interest rate is higher than the unsubsidized loan).

Great news! You don鈥檛 have to apply for individual 91大神 competitive scholarships! Our competitive scholarship application is comprehensive for all awards that fall under this program.

Our competitive scholarship application is comprehensive for all competitive scholarship offers. Students do not need to indicate interest for a specific award. We will review all eligible candidates based on the comprehensive application.

Students selected for a competitive scholarship will receive an email to their 91大神 email account letting them know there was a change to their financial aid offers. Students should check their 91大神 email on a regular basis and review their financial aid listings any time they receive an email stating their offer has changed.

Competitive scholarship selections begin in the spring for awards that start in the fall. Most scholarships for the following academic year will be offered by May 1. However, additional offers may be made throughout the year as additional scholarship funds become available. Students offered a competitive scholarship will receive an email to their 91大神 email account letting them know that a change was made to their financial aid offers. Due to the on-going nature of awarding, 91大神 does not send 鈥渞egret鈥� emails to students not selected for an award.

Students who submit their scholarship application by the priority date will be considered in the first round of scholarship recipient selection and will be considered for all scholarships awarded for that academic year. Submitting an application by the priority date is probably the most important action a student can take to maximize their chances of being selected to receive a 91大神 competitive scholarship.

Selection committees for competitive scholarships vary based on the scholarship鈥檚 donor agreement. These committees may include college deans, department chairs, representatives from various offices on campus, college administration, or even members of campus-based or outside organizations.

Yes, and the sooner, the better! There are a number of scholarships that are awarded after the first round of recipient selection. Students submitting applications after the priority date will be considered for any remaining scholarships.

Absolutely! Although most scholarships do take academic merit into consideration, there are many scholarships that also look at other factors such as leadership, citizenship, community services, membership in certain organizations, and a host of other criteria.

Renewal evaluations occur after grades post each semester.
