There are several financial aid options available to students. Northwestern College Graduate & Continuing Education programs participate in Federal Pell Grant, Minnesota State Grant and Federal Stafford loans to help finance your education.

How is Financial Aid Determined?

Financial aid is awarded on the basis of need. Your need is determined by your family’s financial strength. Items such as your income, spouse’s income, number of dependents in the family, other family members in college and asset information are used to determine eligibility of federal and state programs. This ensures fair and equal treatment of everyone applying for financial aid.
