Application Process
Last year, 100 percent of our eligible full time student body received some form of financial help. Students who feel they will need financial assistance to attend Becker are encouraged to apply for financial aid at any time. Preference will be given to those who follow the application process described below and complete the steps by April 1 for the upcoming academic year. Students enrolling in January should complete the application process before December 1. Students who have demonstrated need are awarded financial aid on a first-come, funds-available basis.
Students applying for financial aid should pay close attention to deadlines and follow instructions carefully.
In order to award financial aid monies as fairly as possible, the college requires that all aid applicants complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The FAFSA should be completed by February 15th so that the Financial Aid Office will receive the processed form by April.
Financial aid is not automatically renewed. Students must apply for financial aid each academic year. The college reserves the right to adjust a student's financial aid award in terms of type and amount. All records kept by the Financial Aid Office remain in strictest confidence. Please contact the Financial Aid Office with any questions or concerns.
Students are encouraged to investigate and apply for the scholarship programs in their state as well as for those scholarships which may be available from community organizations, parents' employers, or other outside sources. In some cases, the deadline for state scholarships may be as early as February 15th for September entrance. Becker College will not reduce institutional aid if a student receives a third party scholarship.
