Grants are a type of financial aid that is awarded to students based on financial need. It is considered “gift aid” which means it does not have to be repaid. 网赌正规真人实体在线平台 awards federal, state and institutional grant funds to eligible students.

Federal Grants

• Federal Pell Grant: Federal need-based grant program for undergraduate students. It is available for full- and part-time students. For students who qualify, the grant can be used for degree-required classes for a maximum of six years (or 18 quarters) of full-time attendance.
• Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG): Students who are Pell recipients with the most financial need may be eligible for this grant.

WA State Grants

• WA College Grant: Formerly called the WA State Need Grant, this is a need-based grant available for undergraduate students who are also Washington State residents and are enrolled in a minimum of three credits per quarter. For students who qualify, the grant can be used for degree-required classes for a maximum of 15 quarters of full-time attendance.
• College Bound Scholarship: An early commitment program of Washington State financial aid to eligible students who sign up in middle school, demonstrate financial need and fulfill the scholarship pledge.

Work Study provides students with financial need an opportunity to apply for part-time (up to 19 hours per week) on-campus Federal Work Study and off-campus State Work Study jobs. Most of the students who are employed at 网赌正规真人实体在线平台 have Work Study awards. Work Study jobs allow students to work to earn money while attending classes. This kind of student employment may also offer valuable career-related experience. 网赌正规真人实体在线平台 employers/supervisors will accommodate students’ class schedules to provide the flexibility that allows for a focus on education.

To apply for either Federal Work Study (FWS) or State Work Study (SWS) positions, visit our Student Employment webpage.

Student loans are funds that can help students with any college-related expenses that are borrowed and must be repaid after graduation or otherwise leaving the college.

Most financial aid programs (grants, work study and student loans) require that an applicant/student have “financial need”. Financial need is determined by subtracting the “Expected Family Contribution” (EFC) from the estimated “Cost of Attendance” at the college.

Cost of Attendance (COA): The total estimate of direct and indirect educational expenses, such as tuition, fees, books, room/board and transportation.

Expected Family Contribution (EFC): A number that is calculated by the FAFSA or WASFA, based on information such as household size, total income, etc. It represents an estimation of what a family should be able to reasonably contribute toward the applicant/student’s educational expenses.

Financial Need: The difference between COA and EFC, which represents the amount of college-related expenses that is not covered by the amount a family can reasonably contribute. In other words, it is the amount that financial aid can help with.

Satisfactory Academic Progress: In addition to meeting other financial aid eligibility criteria, you must meet and maintain satisfactory academic progress to be eligible for financial aid funding such as federal, state or institutional aid. The Financial Aid Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy (see more information about this policy under "What happens if I withdraw from a class?" below) applies to all quarters of enrollment at 网赌正规真人实体在线平台, regardless of how tuition is paid. Satisfactory academic progress is evaluated for all financial aid recipients at the end of each quarter of enrollment. You are responsible for understanding the Satisfactory Academic Progress requirements.
