Adult Undergraduate Financial Aid

90% of our adult students receive some form of financial aid, including federal and state loans, grants and scholarships. To participate in most loan programs, you must be taking at least six credits or more each semester.

 

Paying for Your Education

For those who qualify, there are financial aid resources available to assist students with meeting the cost of college, including loans, scholarships, and grants. The first step to apply for these resources is to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). For detailed instructions, please visit our Undergraduate Financial Aid page.
