Financial Aid

While the College’s commitment to low-income and first-generation students finds deepest expression in our financial aid policy, there are often needs that are felt in the regular flow of a student’s life which fall outside the parameters of overall financial aid packages. Our LIFTFAR program aims to help fill these gaps.
