What type of financial assistance is available to help me pay for
college?
The addiction studies certificate is eligible for the
short-term certificate grant available to students with
demonstrated financial need as well as students who are
currently in or exiting foster care. Each student may receive a
one-time grant of up to $2,000 to assist with tuition and fees
(does not include the cost of books and supplies). To be
considered, students must submit and satisfy the requirements on
the Short-term Certificate
Grant Application or the Short-term Certificate Foster Youth
Grant Application.
Every student is also encouraged to complete a Free Application
for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to be considered for grants,
scholarships and loans.
Students who complete a FAFSA are automatically considered for
some scholarships. Other scholarships
require an application.
