Financial
Aid Handbook
Dear Students and Parents,
This Financial Aid Department developed this handbook to enable you, the student and/or parent, to understand what Financial Aid is and what a student must do to qualify. We hope students will take the time to read it carefully, as we have tried to simplify an extraordinarily complex system.
The Financial Aid system created under the Higher Education Act of 1965, the access to a college education for students. The systems sharing concept defined as students, parents, federal and state agencies each contributing funds. The intention of Financial Aid is to meet the gap between the student’s income and the cost of attending college.
If students still have questions after reading this handbook, please feel free to call or visit with one of our staff members.
Sincerely,
Financial Aid Staff
