Financial Aid through Forest
The mission of the Financial Aid Office is to guide students through the process of receiving financial assistance, and to provide them with the information necessary to make informed decisions about their finances. We offer many educational opportunities on the critical role debt management will have on later successes in professional careers, such as individual counseling, convocations, group seminars and lender-sponsored workshops.
The Office of Financial Aid is eager to assist students with any aspect of the financial aid process. However, it is critical that students take the initiative to become familiar with the many ways in which funding is impacted by schedule changes, academic progress and other academic decisions. Please feel free to contact or visit our office if you need additional information about financial aid or debt management.
Our current fee schedule for this academic year is available
