The application process is the same for all three types of financial aid. Simply fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), and we’ll determine your eligibility.
Scholarships, grants, loans, and student employment are all considered financial aid. Scholarships and grants are sometimes referred to as gift aid or free money. However, because loans must be repaid and student employment must be earned, they are sometimes referred to as self-help. Typically, applicants are offered a financial aid package comprising a combination of awards from various aid programs.
There are several good reasons to work while attending the University of Lynchburg — not only during the summer but also part-time during the academic year. One important advantage is that you can minimize borrowing by earning money for your college expenses. Another is that you’ll acquire skills and valuable experience.
The information on this page represents grants and financial aid programs that help you pay for college. Funds from these sources do not have to be repaid.
If you meet eligibility requirements, you will automatically be awarded need-based grants by the University of Lynchburg. These grants are awarded after we have received your FAFSA results, and you have been accepted to the University of Lynchburg.
