Basis of Awards
The Student Financial Aid Program at the College is administered in accordance with policies and guidelines that are typical of most colleges and universities in the United States. The College bases its awards on demonstrated financial need which is defined as the difference between a family’s student aid index (SAI) and the student’s yearly educational expenses (cost of attendance). The student, his/her family, and his/her spouse are expected to make a maximum effort to assist with educational expenses.
The student aid index is determined by a careful analysis of financial information submitted on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
