Financing Your Education
A college education is a sound financial decision — in fact, people who graduate from a four-year university earn almost $1.1 million more in their lifetimes than those with a high school degree.
As you would for any major investment, you’ll need to do some research and planning. We’re here to make applying for college financial aid easier.
We're part of the College Cost Transparency Initiative. This means our financial aid offers contain sticker price, aid types and sources, what you pay and how to renew your aid. Our commitment to employ the
principles and standards of CCT underscores our dedication to promoting fairness, accessibility, and clarity in the financial aid process, ultimately contributing to a more equitable higher education landscape.
