2. What are the deadlines for submitting the FAFSA and any other required application?
3. When will I be notified of my financial aid package?
4. Will my request for financial aid have an impact on my ability to be admitted to your college?
5. What are your requirements for need-based aid, merit-based aid and other scholarships?
6. Will outside scholarships reduce the amount of financial aid I can receive from your college?
7. Will your school meet my full financial need for all four years I’m there?
8. Are there state financial aid programs I should know about?
9. Does the college allow installment payments for each semester’s bill?
