WELCOME!
Thank you for your interest in Brewton-Parker College. We are here to assist you with your educational goals.
The role of the Financial Aid Office at Brewton-Parker College is to make a quality Christian education affordable to each and every student who applies. A quality education may not be as expensive as you think!
There are few, if any, investments in life as important as that of a college education. Our desire is to provide access and choice to students, who without such assistance would not be able to attend an institution of higher learning. Please make yourself at home and explore our site.
Don't forget to renew your FAFSA in January 2012!
IMPORTANT FAFSA UPDATES (NEW!)
What is Financial Aid? Financial aid provides assistance through federal, state, institutional, and private programs to students who require funding to meet the cost of attending college.
There are four categories of financial assistance:
- grants
- loans
- scholarships
- student employment
Grants and scholarships are considered "gift" aid, as they do not need to be repaid, unless a student withdraws. Loans and student employment are considered "self-help aid," as they either need to be repaid or require a service commitment on the part of the student.
Financial aid should be used only for expenses directly related to your education. College costs include the following: tuition and fees, books and supplies, computer costs, housing, meals, transportation, clothing personal expenses, and health insurance.
