Financial Aid

Cisco College has a comprehensive program of grants, work programs, loan programs, and scholarships to assist eligible students with the cost of their education. Each financial aid program that the college administers has terms and conditions to insure that the aid is awarded to those that qualify.

In virtually all circumstances, federal, state, and local directives require that the recipient have a documented financial need. To determine the need for financial assistance Cisco College uses the student's estimated cost of attendance and the result of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).

You must apply for financial aid each year. Changes in Federal regulations, educational costs, and your family circumstances make it necessary to evaluate your eligibility each year.

If a student is picked for verification an email will be sent to the student with the information for logging onto Verify My FAFSA. All email correspondence will be sent to the email listed on the student's FAFSA.
