Financial Aid of Nursing at Bryant and Stratton College Ohio
Financial Aid at Bryant and Stratton College Ohio
A student’s decision to attend Bryant & Stratton College should be based on interest in our programs and not on the ability to meet all college costs. Bryant & Stratton College believes students should not be denied the opportunity to pursue their career interests because of a lack of financial resources.
To assist students in meeting their educational expenses, Bryant & Stratton College participates in several types of financial assistance programs - gift aid (scholarships and grants), low-interest loans, and employment opportunities. In many cases, our Financial Services Office awards qualified students a financial aid “package” which includes all three types of financial aid.
Assistance with financial planning is available for families on an individual basis to help them determine how they can best utilize their own resources and other funds to meet college costs. The Financial Services Office will gladly discuss the various types of financial assistance available and will provide students with assistance in completing financial forms during their visit to Bryant & Stratton College.
How to Apply
Students are encouraged to meet with a financial aid advisor in order to determine financial aid qualifications. A member of the financial aid staff will help students to complete the following application forms:
Financial Aid Forms - The “Free Application for Federal Student Aid” (FAFSA) is available from the Financial Services Office or apply online at www.FAFSA.ed.gov. The form must be completed and forwarded to the Department of Education, where it is then processed. In some cases, the school may process the student’s application electronically in order to reduce processing time. New York students receive an Express TAP Application (ETA) from NYSHESC. Eligibility for financial assistance is determined by federal and state agencies, which will produce and send an output document directly to the student.
Federal Income Tax Returns - Students may be required to provide the Financial Services Office a copy of their own and/or their spouse’s and/or their parent’s federal and state income tax returns, including schedules, as well as any additional income and asset information requested by the school.
Upon evaluation of the above forms, the Financial Services Office will notify students of their eligibility for financial aid or of any other steps they may take to receive further consideration for assistance.
Students are required to apply on an annual basis for financial aid consideration. Students may obtain the forms described above annually beginning on approximately January 1 at the Financial Services Office for application for the next financial aid year which begins on July 1.
