(Approved by College Meeting, April 24, 2000)
Financial aid consists of scholarships, grants, loans, and employment opportunities that can help any student who lacks sufficient financial resources to attend the College. This aid is considered as only a supplement to those contributions made by the student and family alike. Any student who does receive financial aid must maintain satisfactory academic progress. Students should be encouraged to contact the Financial Aid Office for application forms, financial counseling and assistance. Any student applying for financial aid must submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) by the necessary deadline. Late applications will be considered only if funds remain available.
Financial aid regulations require that the student make satisfactory academic progress toward completing a degree or certificate. For example, the student must maintain a minimum grade point average and must pass at least two-thirds of his/her courses each semester.
