Financial Aid
-
The FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) is your key to federal and state student aid.
- Eligibility for this financial aid is based on need established by completion of the FAFSA, which includes an evaluation of the student’s income and assets.
- Financial aid application packets are available after January 1st by calling Enrollment Information Services (269-471-6509) or Student Financial Services (269-471-3334).
- Turn in all necessary financial aid documents.
- For a complete list, go to the Student Financial Services website.
- The School of Rehabilitation Sciences has limited resources for financial aid which include graduate assistantships and named scholarships.
- Other sources of support for students may include parental assistance, accumulated savings, the income of working spouses, part-time jobs, scholarships and grants outside the university, and loans.
-
Eligible students may receive Federal Direct Student Loans, Federal Perkins Loans, and Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants.
- Interest on the loans accrues at a comparatively low rate and the loans are repayable over an extended period of time after you complete your course of study.
- We advise students to live frugally and carefully consider the loan amount needed each year to limit student loan debt upon graduation. We incorporate financial literacy training in the OTD program to foster financial wellness and good stewardship.
-
For future 3+3 students, Andrews University offers full-time undergraduate students the Andrews Partnership Scholarship which is described in the AU Bulletin.
- Students who start the OT program without a bachelor’s degree may be eligible to receive this scholarship for 2 terms (OT-1 & 2).
