Students seeking financial aid must first complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid application (FAFSA). The school’s financial aid representative will use this application to determine the student’s needs and assist with deciding what programs best serve the student. If a student withdraws from school, an adjustment in the amount owed may be made, subject to the school’s refund policy. If a student has 26 received financial aid in excess of what he/she owes to the college, these funds must be returned to the federal financial aid program, if applicable.
*(1) federal student loans are required by law to provide a range of flexible repayment options, including, but not limited to, income-based repayment and income-contingent repayment plans, and loan forgiveness benefits, which other student loans are not required to provide; and (2) federal direct loans are available to students regardless of income.
