Paying for College

  Payment  —  Financial Aid

Financial Aid

One of the most difficult aspects of attending college can be figuring out how to pay tuition. The good news is that there are many options for receiving financial aid. These include grants, scholarships, loans, and work-study opportunities.

Steps to Obtain Financial Aid

The following will help guide you through the process of applying for grants, loans and scholarships.

  1. Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The College's Federal ID Code is 003239.
  2. Check for upcoming deadlines.
  3. Apply for Bucks scholarships and search for other scholarships.
  4. Loans are available through the Federal Direct Loan Program.
  5. A federal work study or campus based job is a way to earn as you learn.
  6. You can estimate your eligibility for aid using the net price calculator.
  7. If, based on your FAFSA, you are determined to be eligible for a PHEAA State Grant, you will receive an email to request additional information directly from PHEAA (Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency).
