How to get started with Medtech student financial aid:
-
Research your options
Depending on your situation, you may qualify for one of the following forms of financial aid: grants or scholarships, federal loans, or an alternative program.
-
Grants and scholarships are forms of financial aid that do not have to be paid back
-
Loans are forms of aid that do have to be repaid, but many don’t require the student to repay their loans until after they have graduated
-
Aid from alternative programs may include the GI Bill, military aid, financial aid for veterans, the Trade Adjustment Act or the Bureau of Vocational Rehabilitation, or various work-study programs
*Not sure what you qualify for? No problem – request information or give us a call at 1-877-287-1612.

Fill out a FAFSA form
The first step for qualifying for federal financial aid is completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, also known as the FAFSA form. The application process and guidelines for completing it are available online here: www.fafsa.ed.gov. Things to remember about the FAFSA:
-
You must have your most recent tax return for reference to calculate your expected share of financial contribution in comparison to possible grants and loans
-
The FAFSA deadline varies, so be sure to check with your school
-
FAFSA forms must be signed. To sign electronically, students must apply for a PIN. If you are a dependent of your parents, make sure they are involved with completing your FAFSA form
For assistance in filling out your FAFSA form, please contact our Financial Aid department. We can answer any of your questions throughout this process.
-
Know your campus deadlines
Each of our campuses has different deadlines for the financial aid process. Make sure you know your preferred campus’ deadline. As always, if you have questions about each campus’ financial aid requirements, please give us a call. Answering your financial aid questions is our job!
-
Ask yourself a few questions
Reflect on your own financial situation. What are your financial concerns right now? Do you plan to work while going to school? Where do you see yourself in the next year or two? Do you have savings or family that can help? Be ready to bring your thoughts and questions to your financial aid representative. The more we know about you and your concerns, the better we can help personalize your financial aid plan.
