The goal of the Financial Aid Office is to provide a financial package to cover the difference between the student's budget and the amount revealed by his or her official need analysis. Current students and prospective students are urged to file an application for financial aid early and follow-up on any additional information needed to make an award. The College's Financial Aid Office, which is located on the second floor of the Charles Mosee Building, is available to assist with the application process.

All students who have outside scholarships, grants or loans must notify the Financial Aid Office prior to registration. Scholarship, grant or loan checks should be forwarded directly to the Office of Business and Finance.

What is Financial Aid?
Financial aid is money (scholarships, grants, loans, and work-study) provided by various agencies (federal, state, local governments, universities, community organizations, and private corporations or individuals) to help students meet the cost of attending college. There is an online resource called: THE STUDENT GUIDE TO FINANCIAL AID that provides additional information.

Financial Need
The cost of attendance (COA) at St. Augustine's College consists of tuition and fees, room and board books and supplies, transportation and personal expenses. You must complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The Department of Education will determine your expected family contribution (EFC), or the amount you and your parents/spouse will be expected to pay towards your estimated COA. Your financial need is defined as the difference between your COA and your EFC. The amounts and types of aid awarded to you will depend upon your level of need as determined by this calculation.

If this is your first time filling out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), and you haven't applied for a PIN, you should do so now. Your PIN is what allows you to complete the FAFSA paper-free! You'll need your PIN to make online corrections to your FAFSA, including changing your name and address, or adding/changing the name of a school to receive your application data. The PIN is also your identifier to let you access personal information in various U.S. Department of Education systems. Get a PIN
