Does anyone here have experience with Gannon University's financial aid? Is it substantial? I'm trying to figure out how to make college more affordable.
Gannon University primarily offers financial help through scholarships, grants, loans, and work-study programs. Each aid package is personalized to the needs and merit of the student in question. There are various scholarships for different majors, types of students, and levels of achievement that you can apply for to reduce your tuition costs.
Also, Gannon offers a number of institutional grants for which you may qualify. These grants are determined based on demonstrated financial need and typically do not need to be paid back, unlike loans. Plus, you might also be eligible for federal work-study if you qualify for need-based financial aid.
Remember, the best way to paint an accurate financial picture would be to use Gannon's Net Price Calculator. This gives you a personalized estimate of the net cost to attend Gannon after factoring in financial aid.
However, I always recommend applying to several different colleges and comparing their offered financial aid packages (which you'll receive after being accepted). Not only does this give you a nice range of options, but it also increases the number of financial aid opportunities available to you.
