How to Apply for Financial Aid

It has been the philosophy of the University that no student should be prevented from attending the University because of limited financial resources. The Student Financial Aid Program has been developed to help meet that goal. The Office of Financial Aid administers programs in cooperation with federal, state and private agencies as well as funds provided through the University. Funding may be based on financial need or may be based on academic, athletic or fine arts merit.
