Financial Aid and Scholarships

Lakeland University participates in federal and state student financial aid programs for which its students are eligible. Students who are uncertain about their eligibility for any federal or state aid program should contact the Financial Aid and Educational Funding Office. The offer of federal and state financial aid funds is contingent upon timely completion of all relevant application and financial status forms including the submission of student and parental income tax documents from the most recent tax year. 

In addition to federal and state aid, the university sponsors several of its own programs which are coordinated with and are used to supplement the federal and state programs. A student’s individual financial aid from all financial aid grant and scholarship programs administered by the university (excluding the Talent Incentive Program (TIP)) will not exceed the cost of tuition. Financial aid and scholarship programs administered by the university include: 

Federal Government

• PLUS Loan (Variable) This loan is available from the federal government for parents of dependent students.
