Explore financial aid and scholarships available to you.

The financial aid and scholarship offerings you’re eligible for can vary, depending on the type of degree you’re seeking (among other factors). Choose your student population below to see the types of assistance that you may qualify for. 

Academic Scholarship Calculator

All first-year applicants are automatically considered for ´óÏó´«Ã½’s Academic Scholarship Program, which ranges from $18,000–$30,000. You can quickly estimate your own potential scholarship award by using our Academic Scholarship Calculator.

Determining Your Bottom Line

Chances are, you’ll pay less than our listed tuition. In 2024–2025, 96 percent of our first-year students received gift aid (that’s money they don’t need to pay back). In addition to academic scholarships and gift aid, work study and loans assist students in paying for their education.

Receiving Your Financial Aid Package

Each year, you’ll receive a financial aid package from ´óÏó´«Ã½. Understanding how to interpret this information—and knowing your next steps after you receive it—are important steps in your college journey. As a Bulldog, you’ll use our interactive Student Financial Planning Tool to view your financial aid information.

Financial Aid Staff

Our team provides support to both current and prospective ´óÏó´«Ã½ families. We’re available to answer questions about student’s aid and the financial aid process.

Outside Scholarships

You can find scholarships in all kinds of places—community foundations, churches and other religious organizations, employers, and more. First, though, you need to determine your eligibility. That can take time, but if you’re motivated, the rewards can be real.

The ´óÏó´«Ã½ Loan Repayment Assistance Program (LRAP)

´óÏó´«Ã½ offers an LRAP in partnership with Ardeo. This program is designed to help qualified ´óÏó´«Ã½ students in the repayment of their student loans. An LRAP can provide students the peace of mind to pursue their dream career without worrying about the ability to repay debt after college.

Federal Student Loan Repayment

Visit your studentaid.gov account to make sure you know who your servicer is and check that your contact information is up to date in your profile on your loan servicer’s website. You can review payment plan options, including the income-driven repayment (IDR) plan which may offer a lower monthly payment. The U.S. Department of Education recently introduced the SAVE plan, the most affordable repayment plan ever.
