Financial Aid at Flagler College

Flagler College acknowledges that financing a college education represents a major investment. While the College feels the primary responsibility in this endeavor rests with the student, the College realizes many students cannot afford to pay the entire cost of college tuition. The College conducts a comprehensive financial aid program to assist students in meeting the costs they cannot pay. The primary purposes of the program are to make sure students are aware of the availability of financial aid and to provide the opportunity to apply for any aid for which they might be eligible.

The Financial Aid Office is responsible for all financial aid activities at Flagler College.

You can log in to Financial Aid On-line as soon as you are admitted to Flagler College. This system will lead you through the financial aid process and allow you to view your awards.

Using your Flagler ID you can easily have your financial aid pin sent to your Flagler E-mail box.

For the office location and contact information, see Contact Us, or call (904) 819-6225

What is Financial Aid?

Financial Aid is money awarded to students to help pay their educational costs. It comes in the form of grants, scholarships, loans and employment. Grants and scholarships are called 'gift aid,' since they do not have to be repaid. Loans and employment are called 'self-help aid,' since students are helping themselves by either repaying the money loaned or working for the money. Loans are made at low interest rates, and repayment does not start until after graduation. Employment involves working part-time on campus or at the Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind.

To qualify for financial aid, students must either establish financial need by filling the FAFSA.ed.gov or meet the special requirements of a grant, scholarship or loan awarded without regard to financial need. A Flagler College Financial Aid Application can be obtained on Financial Aid On-line.

There are four basic sources of funds for financial aid at Flagler College: the federal government, state governments, Flagler College and private organizations. Flagler College participates in all federal programs and all State of Florida programs (with the exception of those restricted for use at a state university or community college.) Flagler College provides its own funds in the form of various grants, scholarships and work. In addition to participating in these programs, some Flagler College students receive privately-funded scholarships and loans.
