We want to help you with your payment options as well. Once enrolled, you can manage your payment plan by following the "Simple Steps to Enroll" (see below). Financial Aid assistance is also available to those who qualify (also see below).

Financial Assistance

Most of our financial assistance programs are needs-based as determined by Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). We encourage everyone to complete the FAFSA. You can submit your FAFSA beginning October 1st of the year before you plan to begin college. The earlier you submit your application, the better your chances will be of receiving financial assistance through the FAFSA-dependent programs.

If you are pursuing an industry-recognized credential, other financial assistance may be available to you.

If you are veteran or a foster youth, we have programs dedicated to assisting you.
