Break Down the Cost
Slice up the payment pie and learn what portion of the total cost is actually payable by you.
Scholarships & Grants
Together, scholarships and grants can reduce costs significantly over four years. Both are gift money that does not need to be repaid.
Loans & Work Study
Loans, Federal Work-Study and other on- or off-campus employment opportunities can help fill the gap between your financial aid package and cost of attendance.
