Although many people believe that the cost of a private university is prohibitive, in reality, scholarships, grants, work-study programs and loans can make a Stritch education very affordable. More than 82 percent of Stritch students benefit from these programs.
Financial aid eligibility is calculated by the Free Application for Federal Financial Student Aid (FAFSA). The FAFSA determines the amount you and your family -- if you're considered a dependent student -- can reasonably afford to pay toward your higher education costs.
Financial need is the difference between the total expenses for one year at Stritch and the federally calculated EFC (Estimated Financial Contribution) and also what the University believes your family can contribute.
Once you have been accepted to Stritch, we will design a financial aid package to help meet your needs, through a variety of federal, state, private and University sources. And we offer several convenient payment plans and methods.
