FAFSA
联邦学生援助免费申请(FAFSA)是联邦学生经济援助的申请. The results of the FAFSA determine your eligibility for federal grants, such as the Pell and Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, and loans. Through filing the FAFSA each year, a Student Aid Index (SAI) will be determined. This index is an indicator of your financial need. In addition to determining how much federal aid you qualify for, 提交FAFSA可以帮助你有资格获得机构援助、奖学金和其他来源的助学金. At PBA, 你的FAFSA成绩将用于确定你是否有资格获得PBA助学金,以及一些奖学金和助学金.
Visit studentaid.gov (or get the “My Student Aid” app) to complete the FAFSA. You will need your FSA ID and Password.
对于2024-2025学年,PBA建议在3月1日之前完成FAFSA. If you are unable to complete the FAFSA by March 1, we encourage you to complete it when you are able.
Loans

If you’d like to use the federal direct loans, 您将完成贷款入学咨询(一种确保您了解自己偿还贷款义务的工具)并签署一份称为主本票的贷款合同(对贷款条款的协议)。.
经济援助办公室将首先将你的贷款资金应用到你的PBA学生账户中,以支付学费, fees, room and board, and other school charges. If any additional loan funds remain, they will be returned to you. All loan funds must be used for your education expenses.
Your loan servicer is assigned once your loan is disbursed. 您的贷款服务机构将定期更新您的直接贷款状态, and any additional Direct Loans that you receive.
