How many FAFSAs do I need to fill out for my one year program?

Two: students must apply for Summer 2025 aid and Fall 2025/ Spring 2026 separately. Please complete the 2024-2025 FAFSA and 2025-2026 FAFSA. Please review the Application Procedures as they are subject to change each year.

Can the full cost of attendance be funded through federal student loans?

In some cases, yes, for eligible dependent students the full cost of attendance can be covered with a combination of the Federal Direct Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loans and the Parent PLUS Loan. However, PLUS loan offers are contingent upon an approved credit check. Independent students can only receive their allotted Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loan amounts and the remainder of the Cost of Attendance can be a combination of Private Loans, self-pay, and other resources.
