Our financial aid office will work with you to make the process of applying for aid as simple as possible, and to ensure that you receive all the aid for which you qualify: grants, loans, scholarships, work-study, or some combination of these funds. We also offer a 10-month payment plan to make budgeting for college manageable. Access Mount Saint Vincent's customized link at www.afford.com/mountsaintvincent.

To qualify for aid, complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Students are encouraged to continue to file after this date; however, consideration for funds will be given on a first-come basis.

Most financial aid is renewable on a yearly basis, provided there is adequate funding available and that you remain eligible (enrolled in a matriculated program, in good academic standing, and with continued need). Mount Saint Vincent's policy is to provide the maximum financial assistance available to qualified students based on ability and need. The purpose of financial aid is to enable you to pursue and complete your studies and graduate. There are a wide range of scholarship and financial aid programs available to you.

It's important to note that program guidelines and funding levels, especially State and Federal, are subject to continual change. The College of Mount St.Vincent also reserves the right to modify the amount of an award at any time.
