Financial Aid
To receive financial aid for summer, students must complete the Summer Aid Request Form. To learn more about financial aid availability for summer, please contact Financial Aid.
Federal Student Aid: To receive federal aid, students must be enrolled in at least 6 credit hours and have filed the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Make sure to add our Federal School Code – 003734. Federal student aid includes the PELL grant (if applicable), Direct Subsidized and/or Unsubsidized Loan, or the Parent PLUS loan. You may have eligibility for student loans (Subsidized and/or Unsubsidized) that you can use for your summer billing.
Federal regulations do not allow students to receive federal financial aid from two schools at the same time. If you are a current degree-seeking student at Randolph College and are enrolled at another institution, you may be eligible to receive aid through a Consortium Agreement.
Non-Federal Aid: Some alternative/private loans do not require minimum credit hours nor a FAFSA. You can view available options for alternative/private student loans at FastChoice.
Randolph College Aid: Please note that Randolph College scholarship and grant aid is not available for summer courses.
