Financial Aid
You can visit the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships page to find general financial aid and scholarship info. and to find information that will help you understand your financial aid package.
We also highly encourage you to check the Adult Services Financial Aid page for adult / nontraditional specific student scholarships, a video that explains how to fill out a FAFSA, company deferment info., and how to get tax credits for education.
Options to Pay the Bill
In addition to the Financial Aid and Scholarships mentioned above, Here are some additional options:
- Payment Plans - your payment will be broken down into 4 installments throughout the semester
- Company Deferment Plan - many companies offer tuition assistance. Talk with your employer to see if you qualify for any educational benefits. GVSU offers a special financing program for students who qualify for their employer's tuition reimbursement program that allows the amount of tuition and fees paid for by the employer to be deferred until the end of the semester.
The Student Accounts page also has much more information regarding payments, forms of payment, deadlines / class cancellations, refunds, tuition rates, & more.
