The purpose of the student aid program is to help make higher education a reality for persons who would be unable to attend without financial assistance. Financial aid is awarded only to eligible students who have been admitted to the University. Transient students, irregular students, and non-degree students are not eligible for financial aid. The financial aid application and financial statement may be submitted at any time after the applicant has applied for admission. Financial aid applications are accepted as long as resources permit, and priority is given to those submitted by May 1. Applicants may be eligible for aid from an extensive list of grants, federal programs, loans, work, or scholarships.
