Summer Financial Aid

Summer financial aid is available for students taking classes applicable to their degree program. In order to be eligible for financial aid, a student must complete the 2011-2012 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and be determined eligible for the Pell grant.

For students deemed ineligible for the Pell grant, there may be institutional financial aid available. Please check with the Financial Aid Office after March 9, 2012, to determine eligibility.

Any questions please call 860-512-3380.
