KHEAA Financial Aid Information
Getting into college is only part of the process. You also have to determine how to pay for college and apply for financial aid, if needed. Financial aid comes in many forms, and you’ll probably qualify for more than one type. Depending on the financial aid you’re offered, it might not cost any more to go to a more expensive school than a less expensive school. You won’t know unless you check. Find out what financial aid is available, compare the costs of different schools and find answers to common questions at www.kheaa.com.
