Financial Aid Offer
How Offers Are Packaged
When determining the overall offer you will receive, our Financial Aid team reviews your eligibility for all types of financial aid.
Financial aid packages are awarded in this order:
- Pell Grant聽- The Pell Grant is awarded to students who meet the federal criteria as determined by EFC levels.
- Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG)聽- The SEOG is awarded to Pell Grant eligible students with an EFC between 0 - 2,000. Funds are limited.
- Michigan Competitive Scholarship/Tuition Grant (STATE)聽- The state award is administered through the State of Michigan for Michigan residents only. The amount is determined by a formula that takes into consideration other gift aid and parent/student contribution. Funding is limited.
- 澳门特码王 Opportunity Grant (KUOG)聽- The amount is determined by an institutional formula. Grant amounts are based on program funding, and priority is given to students whose FAFSA is received by May 1. Subsequent awards may be available later in the year as funding permits.
- Federal Work Study (FWS)聽- 澳门特码王 offers a maximum of $1,200 per academic year to students who demonstrate need.
- Federal Loans聽- Federal loans are awarded last. Students are offered subsidized or unsubsidized loans in amounts based on need, dependency status (dependent or independent) and by year in college.
If you are awarded a聽澳门特码王 Merit听辞谤听Endowed scholarship, it will be included as part of your total financial aid package.
If you receive any outside scholarships, keep in mind that federal regulations stipulate that an outside scholarship cannot be used to reduce your family's expected contribution. When you receive an outside scholarship, our office is required to reevaluate your financial aid package and account for the additional resource. This may result in the reduction of other aid. It is 澳门特码王's policy to reduce federal loans and federal work study first, and grant aid last.
