Financial Aid
Mission
The mission of the Financial Aid and Scholarships Office is to contribute to the co-curricular environment of the University by providing monetary assistance through the administration of various federal, state, institutional, and privately funded programs to students who can benefit from further education, but who cannot do so without such support.
Financial aid staff are concerned about and committed to the principles of educational access, choice, diversity, and retention for all students. A special emphasis is placed on the equitable distribution of limited financial aid resources to enable students to attend the University.
Equally important, the role of a financial aid administrator is to support the efforts of the faculty and administration to collectively ensure the academic success of students.
