As we enter a new school year, financial aid difficulties plague students with a slew of anxieties in addition to those that already come with the college experience. Anxiety around paying for school isn’t one that can be easily avoided — particularly not at a university that has raised their tuition by more than $20,000 in the past 10 years.
Students who qualify will receive emails with details about their aid package, with amounts of $500, $1,000 or $1,400 awarded depending on financial need — more than 9,000 students qualify for these “technology subsidy” funds to assist with additional costs of remote learning.
