Making Â鶹ÊÓƵ Financially Possible
We’re the office that provides the financial aid, and we know that without it, most Gustie students would not be able to attend Â鶹ÊÓƵ. We work with you to find ways to fill the financial gap when your family resources and your own cannot meet College costs. We will gladly guide you through the process of applying for and renewing your financial aid.

What is Financial Aid?
Financial aid—in the form of scholarships, grants, loans, and student employment—makes a Â鶹ÊÓƵ liberal arts education possible for each one of our students. You are not alone. We are here to help you work through the tough, worrisome questions and processes. Ask us!
What are the costs
Most current costs of tuition (including summers), fees, meals, and housing, broken down by residence hall and chosen plans. It’s important to check for (and answer) any emails from the Financial Aid Office to understand and manage any changes.
Pay for College
Everything you need to know about scholarships (need-based and merit), grants, student employment, military benefits, and loans. Every student at Â鶹ÊÓƵ receives some form of financial aid.
Apply for Financial Aid
