I'm thinking about applying to Liberty University but need to understand their financial aid offerings. Are there any unique scholarships or grants for incoming students? It'd be helpful to know before I dive into the whole application process.
Liberty University indeed provides numerous financial aid opportunities to students, such as grants, scholarships, work-study positions, and loans.
One of the noteworthy scholarships is the Liberty Champion Award, where students can receive a scholarship amount between $1,000 - $2,750 per year, based on their high school GPA and standardized test scores.
Another grant to note is the Liberty Scholars Grant specifically for incoming students who have unmet need after eligibility for federal and state aid is considered.
Beyond these, Liberty offers issue-specific scholarships, like the Community Care Scholarship, aimed towards students who are homeless or who were in foster care.
Besides scholarships and grants, Federal Work-Study Program provides part-time employment opportunities to students, if eligible based on the results from the FAFSA.
Remember, filling out the FAFSA is the first step in determining your eligibility for these various forms of aid, including federal loans. Always submit your FAFSA as early as possible, to not miss potential aid opportunities.
Lastly, you should contact the Liberty University Financial Aid Office to understand the exact aid you might qualify for, and to help guide you through the application materials you'll need.
