Financial Aid: Eligibility

Eligibility for most Burlington College financial aid programs is based on financial need, the difference between the cost of attendance and the Expected Family Contribution (EFC). Most programs require students be matriculated in a degree or certificate program.

Cost of attendance is the sum of tuition and fees and allowances for books, room, board, personal and transportation expenses. See the Catalogue or Course Bulletin for tuition and fee information. Burlington College cost of attendance allowances are $120 to $375 per term (based on enrollment status) for books, $750 per month for room and board ($250 per month if living at home), and $300 per month for transportation and personal expenses.

The EFC is calculated based on information provided on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and is used as a measure of the student's family's financial strength.

See the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) at www.fafsa.ed.gov for information on federal student aid eligibility and state grant application deadlines. Vermont residents should also complete a Vermont State Grant Application, available online at Vermont Student Assistance Corporation (VSAC).

Students must reapply for financial aid every year.
