Who qualifies for aid?
Students may be eligible to receive financial aid from the federal government to help pay for college or career school. While your income is taken into consideration, it does not automatically prevent you from receiving federal student aid.

Check out the many alternative funding options below.
Federal Pell Grants
Federal Pell Grants are usually awarded only to undergraduate students who display exceptional financial need and have not earned a bachelor’s, graduate, or professional degree. A Federal Pell Grant, unlike a loan, does not have to be repaid, except under certain circumstances.
With Federal Pell grants, amounts can change yearly. The maximum Federal Pell Grant award is $7,395 for the 2024–25 award year (July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2025). The amount you get, though, will depend on your student aid index (based on your FAFSA form), your cost of attendance, your status as a full-time or part-time student, and your plans to attend school for a full academic year or less. You may not receive Federal Pell Grant funds from more than one school at a time. If your parent or guardian died in the line of duty while either (a) serving on active duty as a member of the U.S. armed forces on or after September 11, 2001; or (b) actively serving as and performing the duties of a public safety officer , you may be eligible for a Maximum Pell Grant.
Federal Subsidized Loans
Federal Subsidized Loans are available to undergraduate students with financial need. Your school determines the amount you can borrow, and the amount may not exceed your financial need. The U.S. Department of Education pays the interest on a Direct Subsidized Loan while you’re in school at least half-time, for the first six months after you leave school, and during a period of deferment.
Federal Unsubsidized Loans
Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loans are available to undergraduate and graduate students; there is no requirement to demonstrate financial need. Your school determines the amount you can borrow based on your cost of attendance and other financial aid you receive. You are responsible for paying the interest on a Direct Unsubsidized Loan during all periods.
Plus Loans
PLUS loans are federal loans that parents of dependent undergraduate students can use to help pay for college or career school. PLUS loans can help pay for education expenses not covered by other financial aid.
VA Funding
The Department of Veterans Affairs & our campus administer a variety of VA benefits that may provide tuition assistance to service members, veterans, and their dependents. We accept all chapters of benefit including VR&E. To learn more about these benefits, please visit the link below.
Idaho LAUNCH
Idaho LAUNCH is a grant program that aims to prepare students for Idaho’s workforce needs by providing grants for education and training programs where students have a one-time opportunity to receive a grant for up to 80% of the tuition and fees at an eligible institution (maximum $8000).
