Looking for Financial Aid Options?
Financial Aid comes in many variations depending on needs, merit, circumstances, restrictions, and/or qualifications.
Grants are funds that often do not have to be paid back; they're usually awarded based on need, and sometimes on merit.
Scholarships do not have to be repaid. These funds are awarded based on academic achievement or need, or a combination of both.
Student loans, both private and federal, are funds that students borrow. These funds have to be paid back, with interest.
