media arts school students

It is the policy of the school to defer payment on your bill for an amount that will be covered by financial aid, as long as these requirements are met:

  1. All of the required paperwork has been completed.
  2. Your eligibility for the type of financial aid and amount has been confirmed.
  3. You have agreed to a Student Financial Plan for paying any balance due to the school that is not covered by financial aid. The Student Financial Services Department will assist you in applying for any aid for which you may be eligible. However, it is your responsibility to make sure that the school receives the aid funds.
