The process is as follow:
- Go to the University Website and download the scholarship application.
- Fill out truthfully your application and attach proof of eligibility and any other documentation that can help verify your credentials.
- Within 2 weeks, the university reviews your application and responds with a decision or requests further documentation.
- Students will be informed through email and must agree by signing on the scholarship approval letter within 5 business days, failure to return your approval automatically transfers the offer to the next applicant in the waiting list.
Scholarship Withdrawal and Re-entry Policy
Scholarship recipients who decide to withdraw from the university will forfeit any undisbursed Scholarship funds earned prior to their withdrawal. If the students re-enter a program, he/she should re-apply for the Scholarship.
University’s Payment Plans and Financial Assistance
For all students who prefer to pay out of pocket, there are several payments plans available. Payment plans are discussed during meetings where the student is evaluated, privately and impartially, to determine the dollar amount that they and their family can be expected to contribute to their education. This amount is then compared to associated cost of education, including tuition, fees, housing, meals, transportation, certain living expenses, books, and supplies. Payment arrangements must be made prior to the start of the term/semester. This means that students on a tuition payment plan must make their first payment before the term begins. The University does not charge interest rates on its payment plan.
