A student contribution of $2,000 is required of all students.


How much academic year work and/or need-based loans are included?
$2,500 of work-study.

Does the offer account for the full student budget?

How are outside scholarships handled?
Outside scholarships reduce work-study then the student contribution before reducing grant aid.
