Financial aid and scholarships<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

ESR provides both merit-based and need-based financial aid to assist students in meeting their education expenses, and to encourage full-time participation. Financial aid is available to degree-seeking and certificate students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Types of aid available to ESR students include scholarships<\/a>, discounts<\/a>, loans<\/a> and need-based aid<\/a>, as well as non-ESR aid<\/a>. We also provide some additional financial resources<\/a> for current students. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n

NEED-BASED AID<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Need-based aid is available to all degree-seeking students taking a minimum of six credits per session (3 credits for certificate students) who have not been awarded any other full-tuition scholarship. Need is calculated from information provided by the student on their FAFSA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Except in cases of exceptional need, need-based aid covers up to 50% of tuition for degree-seeking students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
