Careful financial planning and knowledge of the financial aid process and polices are essential for you and your family to prepare for and meet the cost of your college education. We have outlined the various types of financial aid programs at WSC which include grants/waivers, federal work study programs and loans. Details of our billing cycle, costs, yearly application process and deadlines are outlined for your successful participation in the wide variety of financial aid programs offered at Westfield State College.

Financial aid is available at colleges and universities in order to supplement student and family resources that are insufficient to meet the costs of a college education. The primary responsibility for financing your education rests with you and your family, but most colleges offer a variety of financial aid programs for qualified students and their families to consider. At Westfield State College, the financial aid staff will assist you throughout the application process and provide you with the most current information available on its many financial aid programs.

New students should bear in mind that the financial aid application is independent from the admission application process; Westfield State College has a need-blind admission policy. Please complete the financial aid and admission application processes separately, following each individual set of guidelines, requirements, and deadlines.

Entrance Requirements
Students who have been accepted for admission into the College are eligible to matriculate into any degree program sponsored by the Business and Information Technology Department. Accounting students will benefit from having a good math background including high school algebra and other advanced math classes.

Scheduling
All new students will initially register through the Academic Advising Office of the College. After the initial registration process, students will be assigned an academic advisor in the Department. Schedules in semesters subsequent to the first semester will be completed in conjunction with the assigned academic advisor.

ODU Scholarships and Awards

ODU Scholarships and ODU Awards are awarded to potential new students based on their self-reported high school GPA and ACT/SAT test scores, or college transcripts if the student is transferring. The ODU Scholarship or Award is contingent upon your application and acceptance to Ohio Dominican University. Completion of the FAFSA is not required to receive an ODU scholarship or award, but you are strongly encouraged to do so, so that we can determine your eligibility for additional need-based financial aid.

Scholarships and awards range from $1,000 to $13,000 and are renewable each year provided the student meets the academic criteria stated at the time of the scholarship/award.

Recipients of Ohio Dominican scholarships and awards are also encouraged to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to determine their eligibility for other forms of need-based aid offered at Ohio Dominican. For the fastest results, see Applying for Financial Aid.

These pages are dedicated to helping prospective and current Fairleigh Dickinson University students apply for financial assistance. The Financial Aid staff at Fairleigh Dickinson is committed to helping you and your family understand and navigate the complexities of financial aid.

If you have additional questions concerning the Metropolitan Campus, we can be reached at 201-692-2363, for questions or concerns regarding the College at Florham, we can be reached at 973-443-8700.

Financing a college education is one of the most important investments a family will ever make. What surprises many families, however, is how affordable a private education at Fairleigh Dickinson University can be through our various financial assistance programs. Last year, Fairleigh Dickinson administered funds totaling $38 million, including $12 million distributed to new students; 85 percent of the members of our entering class received financial aid.

Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The FAFSA will allow you to be awarded federal aid for one academic year. You must file a Renewal FAFSA each subsequent year to continue receiving federal aid.

A. Go to www.pin.ed.gov to apply for a PIN with the US Department of Education. The PIN will be used as your signature for the
FAFSA, make corrections to the FAFSA, and access all your Federal student aid records. If you are a dependent student,
one parent must also apply for a PIN in order to electronically sign the FAFSA.

B. Complete the FAFSA online at www.fafsa.ed.gov. Bethel College School Code is 003480. You will need your current year
tax return and W-2’s. Tennessee residents must file the FAFSA by February 15 to be considered for the TSAC Grant.

If additional information is required, you will receive a letter from the Bethel College Financial Aid Office. The US Department of Education randomly selects student FAFSA’s for a process called verification. If your FAFSA is selected, the Financial Aid Office must receive documentation to verify the information you reported on your FAFSA. You will be asked to complete a Verification Worksheet and provide signed copies of your current year tax return and W-2 form. If you are a dependent student, we will also need a signed copy of your parents’ current year tax return and W-2 forms. All documentation must be received before an award package will be sent to the student. The Verification Worksheets can be downloaded below:

2008-09 Dependent Verification Worksheet
2008-09 Independent Verification Worksheet

Receive and accept your Award Letter. You will receive an award letter in the mail showing all the Financial Aid for which you qualify. (New students must be accepted for admission before an award letter will be sent.) You may accept or decline each award. Sign and return one copy of the award letter to the Financial Aid Office. If your award letter contains a Federal Stafford loan, you must also apply for the loan by following the instructions on this website under “Apply for an Education Loan”. If the award letter shows you will still owe a balance after your financial aid is applied, a dependent student’s parent may choose to be considered for a Parent Plus loan. Parent Plus loan information is also found under ” Apply for an Education Loan”. Another option is our interest-free payment plan.
