确定资格

The FAFSA and CSS Profile take several factors into account,包括 adjusted gross income, federal and state taxes 支付, 资产及持股, 家庭的规模, and the number of siblings enrolled in college. 援助 applications provide an Expected Family Contribution (EFC), or the amount of money you are expected to supply for your educational costs. Actual out-of-pocket expenses can vary and may be greater or less than your EFC.

Your financial aid award offer will list each individual award for which you qualify. 我们假设您将接受提供给您的任何助学金或奖学金,但您需要在夏季采取额外措施以确保您已获得的贷款资源. 请注意,任何贷款计划列出的金额是您有资格在一年内借款的最高金额. You have the right to borrow less than the amount offered if you so choose.

继续学习的学生将在6月份收到下一学年的经济援助通知, after all spring grades are posted, and once your FAFSA and any requested 验证文件 have been submitted.

 重要的是: 同一学期就读于一所以上学院的学生,只能从一所院校获得经济资助. You must notify our office if this applies to you.

学生必须取得令人满意的学业进步(SAP)才能保持获得经济援助的资格.

In trying to project your eligibility for financial aid in future years, 请记住,你家庭经济状况的变化会影响你的经济援助奖励总额. If your family's financial circumstances improve, you should expect that your need-based aid will likely decrease; similarly, 如果财政状况低迷,通常会导致获得更多的财政援助.
