Online Undergraduate Financial Aid

About Financial Aid

At North Greenville University, student aid is generally awarded based on financial needs. Defined, financial need is the difference between the student’s cost of education (tuition, fees, room-board, and books) and the amount the student and family are expected to contribute toward meeting those costs. The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is required to determine eligibility for financial aid.

    • Scholarship applications are matched to specific scholarship funds to which they qualify. Criteria for scholarship funds vary from field of study to other criteria. In addition, some scholarship awards must be approved by the endowment donors. Therefore, an award from a certain fund this year does not mean that the same award will be received next year.
