Types of Aid – Undergraduate Students

NSU offers various grants, loans, student employment, and scholarships to undergraduate students. There are two types of aid: gift-aid and self-help aid. Although administered by the colleges, many scholarships are funded by private individuals and institutions.

Financial aid awards are based on the completion of the FAFSA and the NSU State Aid Application, accuracy and timeliness of information, receipt of appropriate documentation, and the availability of funds.
