This information is intended to familiarize students and prospective students with the major sources of financial aid available.

It is the responsibility of the student to meet their educational expenses.  Therefore, it is necessary for you and your family to discuss your own budget and resources and to plan for your education.

A student who does not file for financial aid is deciding that he or she needs no financial assistance to pay for their education.  We strongly recommend that all students apply for financial aid.   If personal questions are asked, it is only to obtain a clear picture of your financial aid situation and assist you in the financial aid process.  Eligibility for federal and state student aid is determined on the basis of financial need and on several other factors.  The financial aid administrator will determine what aid you may be eligible for based on your cost of attendance.

THE FIRST STEP IN APPLYING FOR FINANCIAL AID

Students who wish to apply for financial aid (grants/loans) must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).  The result of having filed this application will be used to determine grant and loan eligibility.  The application is available after January 1 and is available on the Internet at www.fafsa.ed.gov.  NOTE:  You (and your parent, if applicable) will need a "PIN number" to sign your electronic FAFSA.  The web address to file for a PIN number is www.pin.ed.gov.

Students/parents (s) may choose to file the paper FAFSA (to be completed and MAILED) to the Department of Education.  To request a paper FAFSA form, call the Federal Student Aid Information Center at 1-800-4-FED-AID (1-800-433-3243).

Jameson Memorial Hospital School of Nursing participates in the PELL Grant (Federal), PHEAA (PA State) Grant programs, the OIG (Ohio Instructional Grant), for the Ohio residents and the Federal Family Educational Loan Program (formerly the Stafford Loan Program).
