Financing Your Passion
and Purpose
At Marywood University, we understand that a huge part of your college search is making sure you can fund your education. That’s why we do everything we can to make sure a quality education at Marywood is an affordable investment.
Do You Qualify for
Financial Aid?
Everyone should apply for financial aid, even if you don’t think you will qualify or that it’s unlikely you’ll receive aid. The fact is, most families do quality for some sort of aid.
The FAFSA application is free and open to anyone. What’s more, by completing the FAFSA and submitting an application, you are indicating that you are waiting for a response. If you don’t, Marywood will need to wait until after the FAFSA deadline to pass before providing an award letter.
