Financial Aid

Yes, financial aid is available for courses you take through University College.

Financial aid is determined by need. You'll be eligible for financial aid if you meet the Federal Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) eligibility requirements, enroll in at least six credit hours (usually two courses) and are admitted into a degree program.

University College also offers Osher Scholarships to first-time college students who qualify. Other sources of student loans and grants include the Finance Authority of Maine and The MES Foundation. Check with your university's financial aid office for more information.
