A Quality Education is Within Reach

Education should be accessible. We are dedicated to helping our students and their families understand the cost of college and navigate their financial aid options.

Financial Aid Opportunities

All applicants are automatically considered for merit-based scholarships and all those offered admission will be guaranteed an award of $25,000-$33,000 per year.

Merit-based scholarships are automatically renewed each year. Scholarships can be stacked with other forms of financial aid including grants, loans, competitive scholarships, outside scholarships, and student employment.
