Financial Aid

We know that a college education is a big investment that often requires some financial juggling and even sacrifices. Not only do we have one of the lowest combined tuition and costs for colleges and universities in the area, but we are also committed to working with you and your family to offer financial support in terms of scholarships, grants, and loans from governmental and private sources, as well as a variety of on-campus employment opportunities. 

Student Financial Aid is located in the Student Services Building on the Trumbull Campus. Please review the options below and choose a method of communicating which works best for you and your current needs:
