Financial Aid & Affordability Making college affordable is an important part of the college search process. Many students opt to enroll at a community college and then transfer to a private 4-year university. For some, going to school part-time while working helps them finance their education. Whatever you decide, we will help you continue your focus on financing your degree. You can apply for aid using the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) www.fafsa.ed.gov.
