Federal Financial Aid Programs

Who Is Eligible

To be considered for Federal financial aid programs students must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) at www.studentaid.gov. To qualify for federal financial aid, students must be United States citizens or eligible non-citizens, have not defaulted on a prior student loan or owe a refund on a previous educational grant, and have registered with the selective service (generally applied to United States males ages 18 to 25). Continued eligibility for federal financial aid is based on submission of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) annually and maintaining satisfactory academic progress.

Loans
• Federal Direct Unsubsidized Stafford Loan
• Federal Direct Graduate PLUS Loan
• Alternative educational loans are available through private lenders

Scholarships

Chaminade also awards a limited number of donor sponsored scholarships to new and continuing graduate students. In addition to the student’s academic profile, other criteria for receiving a donor sponsored scholarship may vary based on the wishes of the donor. Donor sponsored scholarships are awarded on a year-to-year basis based on funding and the recipients continued eligibility. An application is required for consideration after the initial donor sponsored award is granted.
