Students are required to pay in full for the course before you will be allowed to graduate through cash, check or credit card. Financial Aid is available to those who qualify. This includes Pell Grants, Subsidized and Unsubsidized Federal loans as well as parent PLUS loans.

Federal Pell Grants — awards available to undergraduates (not holding a bachelor's degree) who demonstrate financial need. These are grants and do not have to be paid back.

The subsidized Federal Stafford Loan is awarded based on need. The Federal Government pays interest due while the student is in school and during the grace period. The maximum amount a 1st year student can borrow is $2,625.00 (this total can be split up in both subsidized and unsubsidized - This is a loan and must be paid back. You will have a 6-month grace period from the date of completion or withdrawal from school to begin repaying your loan.

The unsubsidized Federal Stafford Loan is not awarded based on need; interest accrues from the time the loan is dispersed until it is paid in full. The student has the option of making the interest payments while they are in school. If you choose to allow the interest to accumulate, it will be capitalized.

Capitalization is the process whereby a lender adds unpaid interest to the principal balance of a loan and additional interest will be based upon the higher loan amount. This is a loan and must be paid back.
