Your Unique Situation
PrintDivorced or Separated Parents
md传媒国产剧 College believes that the primary responsibility for educational expenses lies with the student and the family. Therefore, both biological parents must submit financial information in order to establish a student鈥檚 eligibility for financial aid.
For exact details on what you need to submit, visit听.
If the whereabouts of your noncustodial parent are unknown, or if there are extenuating circumstances regarding your situation, please complete the听Noncustodial Parent Waiver Petition. Please provide supporting documentation from a third party. Requests without supporting documentation will not be reviewed. Refusal of your noncustodial parent to provide information or support does not constitute a waiver.
Please note that md传媒国产剧 College will also accept the Noncustodial PROFILE Waiver Request made available to incoming students by the College Board.
All information is kept strictly confidential, unless a signed release is provided authorizing the sharing of information between all parties.
Independent Students
A student is considered federally independent if any of the following apply:
- 24 years old
- married
- serving on active duty in the US Armed Forces
- a veteran
- a parent with dependents
- an emancipated minor
- homeless
- assigned a legal guardian before the age of 18
For institutional aid purposes, all undergraduates at md传媒国产剧 College are considered dependent. We will only consider students independent in extreme circumstances. The student should submit a letter appealing dependency status to the Office of Student Services. The appeal letter should outline the student's relationship with his/her parents. We also require a letter from a third-party (counselor, teacher, social worker, lawyer for example) in support of the claim.
Special Circumstances
Our goal is to accurately determine your family鈥檚 ability to contribute toward your education and to provide the most appropriate need-based financial aid package; taking into consideration all application materials provided to the financial aid office. You may request a secondary review of your financial aid package at any time due to a change in your family鈥檚 circumstances. Information presented in your appeal should be either new information or information that has changed significantly from your initial application materials.
Please submit a detailed letter of explanation regarding your special circumstances, along with the听Financial Aid Appeal Form听and all other applicable documentation listed on the appeal form, as it pertains to your specific circumstances. Additional documentation may include (but is not limited to): tax returns, paystubs, termination letter, severance letter, death certificate, medical bills, receipts, and information about unemployment compensation, Social Security and/or disability benefits.听
Special Circumstances听do听include the following:
- Loss of employment
- Extraordinary unreimbursed medical expenses
- One-time income received (from capital gain or distribution, etc.)
- Death of parent
Special Circumstances听do not听include the following:
- Student or parent(s) who does not wish to borrow to cover educational expenses
- Parent(s) refusal to contribute to educational expenses
- Parent(s) payment of student loans for older sibling
- Expenses such as credit card debt, wedding expenses, sports, enrichment activities, etc.
Financial Aid Appeals are reviewed within ten business days by a committee. Additional processing time may be needed if more information is required. If additional financial aid is offered, the student will receive a revised Financial Aid Award Letter. If additional financial aid is not offered, the student and/or parent(s) will receive notification of the appeal denial or postponement (if applicable).
Summer Financial Aid
Financial aid for md传媒国产剧 College's summer sessions is limited. Federal Direct Loans, Pell Grants, and private educational loans are the only sources of funding available for summer enrollment.
To be considered for any Federal financial aid, all students must be at least half-time (6 credits) in a degree program and must have completed md传媒国产剧 College's financial aid application process.
Pell Grant
Federal Pell Grants are awarded to students demonstrating substantial financial eligibility, based on information submitted on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Students who were enrolled full time for both fall and spring semester and received their maximum Pell award during the academic year听are eligible for an additional Pell Grant in the summer. Eligible students "shall" be awarded up to one and one-half Federal Pell Grants (i.e., 150 percent of the student's scheduled award) during a single award year. The student must be enrolled on at least a half-time basis in the payment period during which the additional Pell Grant funds are received. All Pell Grant funds received must be counted towards the student's overall lifetime eligibility limits.听Please contact your financial aid advisor for additional details. Other Federal and state grants are generally not available for summer enrollment.听For more information on Federal Pell Grants, visit the听Types of Financial Aid听web page.
Work-Study
A student interested in Summer Work-Study should complete the听Summer Work-Study Application.
Loans
A student may be eligible to borrow the Federal Direct Loan for the summer term if the student did not borrow all of his/her annual loan limit during the prior academic year or will not be borrowing the annual loan limit for the coming academic year due to attendance for only one semester. In addition, a student is eligible to borrow if the summer term is the student's final enrollment period. Students must also be enrolled at least half-time (six credit hours) over the course of both summer sessions to be eligible. For more information on Federal Direct Loans, visit the听Types of Financial Aid听web page.
