Payment
Plans
·
College Three-Payment Plan
If you are unable to pay the full amount of tuition at registration, the
three-payment installment plan may be used. At registration, you will
pay any required fees, 1/3 of the tuition, and a $25 installment plan
fee. The second installment will be due the last class of Module
2. The third installment will be due the first class of Module 4. The three-payment installment plan may be used in each semester. A
promissory note will be required at registration.
·
Employer Assisted Payment Plan
If your employer will assist you in your educational costs, you may defer
payment of tuition by providing documentation from the company prior to
registration. This includes a letter on company letterhead or the appropriate
company form stating your eligibility and copy of your company policy
regarding percentage of tuition and fees covered. You will be required to pay
all fees and the Enrollment Deposit as well as to sign a Promissory Note (Employer
Assisted Payment Plan) at registration. The College will provide a listing of
all charges and notification of your successful completion of program modules
according to your employer’s requirements. You agree to expeditiously submit
invoices to your employer for reimbursement and pay the college not later
than the next class meeting after you have received reimbursement.
·
Credit cards and personal checks are accepted for
payment of tuition and fees.
The
Financial Aid Office
Any
student wishing to apply for financial assistance should contact the
Huntington University Financial Aid Office as early as possible so that your
financial aid eligibility may be determined in a timely manner. You
must apply for admission to the EXCEL Adult Degree Programs before the Financial Aid Office
can process your request for financial aid eligibility. When you
contact the Financial Aid Office, identify yourself as a student with
questions about the EXCEL Adult Degree Programs. The Financial Aid Office will mail a
Financial Assistance Packet to you, including the Free Application for
Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and information on applying. You also may
complete the FAFSA
online. The Financial Aid Office is available to answer your questions
and to help estimate your eligibility for financial assistance.
Preparing
for a college education requires advance planning. To assist you in making
appropriate financial preparations, please familiarize yourself with the
following items and make a checklist of those points which might require your
attention.
Gift
Assistance
Grants
and scholarships are awarded based upon a variety of factors but primarily
upon your demonstrated financial need. Listed below are some of the most
common forms of gift assistance.
·
Federal Pell Grant
Provided
by the federal government and administered by the University, this grant is
based upon financial need.
·
Indiana State Grants
Available
to students who enroll full-time and qualify based on need. The grant is not
available to persons who already hold a bachelor's degree or persons from
outside the State of Indiana. The Free Application for Federal Student Aid
(FAFSA) is required.
·
Veterans Benefits
Available
to those who qualify. Eligibility is determined by the Veteran's
Administration, and potentially eligible students should contact their local
Veteran's Administration representative.
Federal
Educational Loans
·
Many students supplement their resources for college
with the use of funds from the Federal Education Loan Program. The Federal
Stafford Loan Program is based upon demonstrated need and is administered
through the college. There is also a Federal Stafford Un-Subsidized Loan for
which most students will qualify. Eligibility is determined at the time
financial aid packages are awarded. Supplemental Loans to Students (SLS) are
available to EXCEL Adult Degree Programs students to supplement the Federal Stafford Loan.
·
The eligibility levels for all of the above mentioned
programs are determined through confidential needs analysis. The confidential
analysis will be based upon the Free
Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The Student Aid Report
(SAR) which the student receives from the FAFSA must be on file in the
Financial Aid Office.
·
Students who have earned more than 58 semester hours of
college credit may generally borrow sufficient funds through the Stafford
Loan Program to cover EXCEL tuition.
