Are You Eligible for Student Aid and Grants?
Eligibility for federal student aid is�based on financial need and on several other factors. The financial aid administrator at the college or career school you plan to attend will determine your eligibility.
To receive aid from our programs, you must:
-
qualify for financial need (except for certain loans).
-
have a high school diploma or a General Education Development (GED) certificate, pass a test approved by the U.S. Department of Education, meet other standards your state establishes that the Department approves, or complete a high school education�in a home school setting that is treated as such under state law.�
-
be working toward a degree or certificate in an eligible program.�
-
be a U.S. citizen or
eligible noncitizen
.
-
have a valid Social Security Number (unless you're from the Republic of the Marshall Islands, the Federated States of Micronesia, or the Republic of Palau).�
-
register with the Selective Service if required. You can use the paper or electronic FAFSA to register, you can register at
www.sss.gov
, or you can call 1-847-688-6888. (TTY users can call 1-847-688-2567.)
-
maintain satisfactory academic progress once in school.
-
certify that you are not in default on a federal student loan and do not owe money on a federal student grant.
-
certify that you will use federal student aid only for educational purposes.
The Higher Education Act of 1965 as amended (HEA) suspends aid eligibility for students who have been convicted under federal or state law of the sale or possession of drugs. If you have a conviction(s) for these offenses, call the Federal Student Aid Information Center at 1-800-4-FED-AID (1-800-433-3243) or go to the�
FAFSA on the Web
�site, click on "Before Beginning A FAFSA" in the left column, then click�on "Drug Worksheet"�to find out how this law applies to you.
Even if you are ineligible for federal aid, you should complete the FAFSA because you may be eligible for nonfederal aid from states and private institutions. If you regain eligibility during the award year, notify your financial aid administrator immediately. If you are convicted of a drug-related offense after you submit the FAFSA, you might lose eligibility for federal student aid, and you might be liable for returning any financial aid you received during a period of ineligibility.
If you have a question about your citizenship status, contact the financial aid office at the college or career school you plan to attend.
