What is financial aid?

 

Financial aid is funding provided by federal, state, and local governments, along with other organizations, to help a student pay for the cost of postsecondary education.

THERE ARE FOUR TYPES OF FINANCIAL AID:

  1. SCHOLARSHIPS: Money is given based on skill, achievement, or financial need. These do not have to be repaid.
  2. LOANS: Money can be borrowed at a low-interest rate based on financial need. Loans do have to be repaid.
  3. GRANTS: Money you receive if you show financial need. Grants do not have to be repaid.
  4. STUDENT EMPLOYMENT: Work while going to school to help pay your expenses.
