Northbridge University provides various financial aid programs for those who qualify, available on the following page:
When should Northbridge University receive FAFSA resStudents should submit the FAFSA before the academic year starts or as soon as the relevant income information is available (for yourself, your spouse, and/or your parents). The university must receive the results by the last day of the academic calendar or your last day of attendance, generally mid-September—whichever comes first.
Before accepting loans, you should keep in mind that all loans must be repaid with interest, even if you don’t finish the program, are unable to find a job after graduation, or did not receive the services paid with the loans.
To qualify for a federal Direct Loan, you must be enrolled at least half-time (six credits or more for undergraduates, three or more for graduate students) and complete the FAFSA at www.studentaid.gov. Then, complete Entrance Counseling and the Master Promissory Note (MPN) on the same website.
Northbridge University will receive your FAFSA results, MPN, and counseling confirmation, and you will be given a financial aid offer showing your maximum loan eligibility.
