Investing in Remarkable Students

When considering colleges, there is so much to think about. What degree

programs are offered? How much interaction will you have with faculty?

Are there opportunities for undergraduate research, internships, meaningful

community service? Of course, at the back of your mind, you are thinking about

cost. Saint Rose offers one of the lowest private college costs (tuition, fees,

room and board) in the entire Northeast. With no graduate students as teaching

assistants, an average class size of 17, and recognition as one of the top

“Best Northern Universities” by US News and World Report, The College of

Saint Rose offers a remarkable education at an affordable price.

We believe you should have clear information about scholarships and financial assistance as early

as possible in the college search process. Since, first and foremost, the College values academic

achievement, we have established a series of scholarships based on high school GPA and SAT

or ACT scores. This brochure describes the amounts and the qualifying criteria for Saint Rose

academic scholarships, so you can see for yourself what type of scholarship you will be eligible for.

We have also included the steps to apply for financial aid, important deadlines and sample financial

aid packages. We hope that this brochure brings transparency to this subject and enables you to

see that a private college education is, indeed, a remarkable value.

This is a remarkable institution, and we are investing in remarkable students— just like you. We

are committed to you and the quality of your education, so feel free to contact our admissions

or financial aid staff with any questions.

What is Financial Aid?

Financial Aid is funding awarded to students to assist with the cost of attending college.

Approximately 98% of all Saint Rose students receive some type of financial assistance in the form

of scholarships, grants, student employment, and loans.

Selecting a major is not the only criteria to be considered when choosing a college. A college

education is one of the most important investments an individual can make; it is our goal to make

your college education an affordable investment.

Financial aid comes from a variety of sources: federal; state; institutional in the form of scholar-

ships, grants, loans; and student employment.

Scholarships: Funding that does not need to be repaid. Usually based on merit.

Grants: Funding that does not need to be repaid. These types of funds can come from the fed-eral government, state government, or the college. May be awarded based on financial need

or may be based on non-need criteria.

Loans: Money that is borrowed that must be repaid. Sources of loans can be from the federalgovernment, some states, or a private lender (bank or credit union).

Student Employment: Money that can be earned by working part-time on campus. Thesefunds come from the federal government in the form of Federal Work Study. Funding is limited.

Prospective first year students considering The College of Saint Rose who wish to receive an

estimate of the potential costs and financial aid can use our Net Price Calculator (NPC). Students

& families will need to provide information regarding income, household size, GPA, SAT/ACT

scores, etc., to receive an estimate. This is not the official application for financial aid; students

must complete the FAFSA to be considered for aid.

The Financial Aid office here atSaint Rose is fantastic!

Through Financial Aid, I foundout that I was eligible for a

Transfer Scholarship at SaintRose, which made me more

confident with the decision totransfer here without breakingthe bank! Perhaps my favoritequality of the Financial Aid of-fice at Saint Rose is that theytreated me like a person, notjust another number! By sit-ting down with the FinancialAid counselors, they explainedeverything on my bill, step bystep. They also included mymom in the process which really stood out to me, andanswered every question shehad even if it was a simplequestion. If it wasn't for theFinancial Aid counselor who

helped me, I can honestly say I wouldn't have been able

to stay at the place that hasbecome a second home to me!

Applying for Financial Aid

All students who would like to be considered for financial aid must first be offered admission to the

college. Students wishing to receive financial aid must file a Free Application for Federal Student

Aid (FAFSA).*

The first step for all first-time aid recipients is to create a FSA user ID at https://fsaid.ed.gov.

Parents of all dependent students must also apply for a separate FSA user ID.

Next, file the FAFSA online at www.fafsa.gov. Each year the FAFSA is made available by January 1.

All prospective first year students and transfer students should apply by February 1. If tax returns

have not been completed, estimate the income portion of the FAFSA as accurately as possible.

Apply for state scholarships and grants. Check with your state agency for application information

and forms. NYS residents may apply for TAP at www.hesc.ny.gov.

The College of Saint Rose school code is 002705. Completed FAFSAs are transmitted to the

College electronically by the federal government.

Financial Aid award letters for accepted students will begin to be distributed in early March.

*Students must refile the FAFSA for each new academic year.

Federal & Private Loans

Federal Direct Student LoansFederal Direct Student Loans are low-interest federal loans offered to undergraduate students. There are two types of Federal Direct Student

Loans: Subsidized and Unsubsidized. The Federal Direct Student Loans are funds the student borrows that must be repaid. All students who

wish to obtain a federal loan must be enrolled on at least a half-time basis (6 credit hours) and file a FAFSA form (www.fafsa.gov). Prior to

receiving their first disbursement, new loan borrowers are required to Complete Entrance Counseling and Sign a Master Promissory Note.

Students must go to www.studentloans.gov to complete Entrance Counseling and sign a Master Promissory Note once they have officially

accepted the loans with the Office of Financial Aid via the Saint Rose secure site.

Federal Direct Subsidized Loan: The U.S. Department of Education pays the interest on the loan as long as the student is enrolled at least half-time. A credit check is not required for approval of this loan. To receive the loan, a student must demonstrate financial need and

cannot be in default on any other type of federal loan. Financial need is determined by filing the FAFSA. If a student is eligible for a subsidized

loan, it will be reflected on the award letter. Payments for this loan are deferred until 6 months after the student graduates or ceases to be

enrolled at least half-time.

Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loan: The interest will accrue while a student is enrolled and is not subsidized by The U.S. Departmentof Education. To receive the loan, a student does not need to demonstrate financial need but cannot be in default on any other type of federal

loan, but a FAFSA must be filed. A student may choose to pay the interest while in school or they may defer the payment. If you choose not to

make interest payments while in school, the interest will be capitalized at repayment and added to your repayment. Payments for this loan are

deferred until 6 months after the student graduates or ceases to be enrolled at least half-time.

Federal Direct Parent Loan (PLUS): Parents may choose to apply for a PLUS loan for their dependent undergraduate student as a payment option. To receive the loan, a student does not need to demonstrate financial need and the parent or student cannot be in default on

any other type of federal loan, but a FAFSA must be filed. In addition, a credit check is required for approval of this loan. The maximum amount

the parent may borrow on a Federal Direct PLUS Loan each academic year is the cost of attendance minus other financial aid received by the

student. Repayment of this loan begins once the loan has been fully disbursed and is repaid over a ten-year period. Parents may choose to

defer monthly payments while a student is in school by choosing the deferment option when completing the credit check. To complete the credit

check, please visit www.studentloans.gov. Once approved, the parent must sign a Master Promissory Note at www.studentloans.gov. A separate

application is also required.

Private Alternative LoansPrivate Alternative Loans are private, credit-based loans where the student is the borrower. The maximum amount the student may borrow

each academic year is the cost of attendance minus other financial aid received by the student. These loans must be repaid, and the student

must be at least 18 years old to apply. Private loans offer varying terms and conditions set by the individual lender of the loan program.

Please also note that time is required to obtain and review credit reports, obtain enrollment certification from the College, and for processing

of the disbursements.

The College of Saint Rose has afforded me a great learning experience,but has also enabled me to effectively utilize my GI Bill and the College’sYellow Ribbon Program to pursue college tuition free. Through coop-eration between the College and the VA, I was able to not only obtainmy undergraduate degree in business, but I have also been able toleverage my veteran’s education benefits to actively pursue my graduatestudies at The College of Saint Rose. I highly recommend that veteranslooking to maximize their GI Bill give Saint Rose a good look becausebeing “military friendly” is more than just a slogan to the College;they are taking real steps to make sure vets are successful both asstudents and as members of the community.
