Guide to Financial Aid

The term "financial aid" includes a wide spectrum of programs:

Scholarships Scholarships do not have to be repaid. They are available from many sources, including the college, state agencies, professional and service agencies, private foundations and some employers.
Grants The largest and best-known source of grants is the Federal Pell Grant. Grants are awarded based on need and do not have to be repaid.
Loans Loans may come from the Federal government, banks or private financial institutions, and must be repaid.
Work-study jobs Work-study programs let students earn money toward their education while they're going to school. Students are often placed in jobs related to their program of study.
