Types of BSN Program Financial Aid for Adults
- Scholarships – Because scholarships are a type of aid that does not need to be repaid, you should explore the full range of scholarship opportunities for your degree program. Scholarships may be offered directly by the college/university; or they may be offered through other venues, such as scholarship search engines. (Be sure to visit our list of recommended free scholarship search engines.)
- Grants – Similar to scholarships, grants are a type of aid that does not need to be repaid. Grants are typically offered by the government, both federal and state. To be considered for any type of grant, students must submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid as early in their college search process as possible. Colorado residents may qualify for additional grants toward their undergraduate degree.
- Education Loans – Students may need to consider borrowing money to help pay for their education. Education loans are a type of aid that must be repaid; therefore they should be considered after exploring scholarship and grant opportunities.
