and Fees
Tuition
costs are different for Connecticut residents and out-of-state
students. Complete information is available at Fees
and Expenses.
Financial
Aid
Complete
financial aid information is available from the SCSU
Financial Aid site.
A
limited amount of financial aid is awarded by SCSU to
those students who can demonstrate financial need and
who apply for financial aid by the stated deadlines.
Financial aid cannot be viewed as the primary source
that a student uses to pay University charges.
The
types of financial aid available include grants
and scholarships, student loans, student employment,
federal work-study program, veterans’ benefits,
tuition waiver for veterans, and Connecticut National
Guard tuition waiver (full-time students). Click
to these sites for further information.
You
can also click to Financial
aid—external sites for information about student
aid from the U. S. Department of Education, FinAid,
and—for an interest-free payment plan--Academic
Management Services.
Monthly
Tuition Payment Plan
For
students and parents who find it more convenient to
make monthly payments, SCSU offers a tuition installment
plan administered by Academic Management Service (AMS)
of Swansea, MA. Full-time students may budget all or
part of the semester tuition and fees over a four-month
payment period for a fee of $40. There is a limited
enrollment period for this plan, with an initial payment
date of December 1.
Interested
students may request additional information about the
plan by calling AMS at 1-800-635-0120. Brochures
explaining the budget plan are available in the Bursar’s
Office, EN 127 (203-392-6140).
