FINANCIAL AID
http://www.pba.edu/admissions/financial-aid/
Palm Beach Atlantic makes every effort to offer financial assistance through a variety of programs (federal, state and institutional), to deserving students in, addition to providing funds on the basis of demonstrated financial need in the form of grants, work awards, and loans. Students must apply for need-based financial assistance each year by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Assistance (FAFSA) online at www.fafsa.ed.gov.
Financial assistance to help defray educational-related expenses, including tuition and fees, books and supplies, housing, meals, transportation, personal items, health insurance, international and other special programs of study, may be provided in the form of scholarships and grants (gift monies that are not repaid) and self-help (loans and work-study employment). Loans must be repaid, usually beginning 6 months after the day the recipient has graduated, discontinued studies, or dropped below half-time. Under the federal work-study program, students are provided employ¬ment. The money earned must be used to defray expenses directly related to educa¬tional costs.
A student receiving aid at the time of admission may expect to continue receiv¬ing assistance during subsequent years, provided: (a) the student makes satisfactory academic progress as defined in this Catalog; (b) the need for aid continues; (c) the student meets the specific requirements of the various scholarship/grant programs; (d) the University continues to receive adequate federal and/or state aid funds; and (e) the student files the proper applications. In the event the student fails to maintain satisfactory academic progress and is denied such assistance, he or she may reestablish student financial assistance by enrolling at his or her own expense and subsequently raising his or her PBA cumulative GPA* and/or meet the rate of progress percentage (credit hours earned vs. credit hours attempted) to meet the required standard.
