If You Are Applying for Financial Aid

If you are planning to apply for financial aid and want it to begin the first term, you are encouraged to apply at least 3 months in advance of your start date. It is our understanding that if you apply for financial aid over the internet your application will be processed faster. If you are keen to begin and want to begin in the next cohort with your first course, you will probably need to fund your first term while you are waiting for financial aid. Materials are purchased each term.
