Financing Your Education

At Mitchell College, your dreams for a quality education can become a reality. The Mitchell College Office of Financial Aid, located in Henry Hall, exists to assist students in obtaining funding to reach their educational goals. Each year the Mitchell College Office of Financial Aid awards and administers millions of dollars in financial aid to eligible students. These students receive aid in the form of scholarships, grants, work-study, and loans to make their educational dreams a reality.

Applying for financial aid has never been easier. You can apply for both federal and Mitchell College need based aid by completing the the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). This application establishes your level of eligibility for federal and state grants, Mitchell College need based grants, and federal loans and work-study programs. You can apply on-line at www.fafsa.ed.gov. In most cases students will need to supply parental information as well as their own.

FAFSA applications can be completed for the 2008-2009 academic year between January 1, 2008 and June 30, 2009. Many types of financial aid are awarded on a first-come/first-serve basis. Some types of aid are limited in funding, so apply as soon as possible after January 1 of each year. Estimated income tax data is permitted for completion of the application.

Mitchell College's school code for Federal Financial Aid is 001393.



Mitchell College is a member of the SAGE Scholars Tuition Rewards™ program. By being part of SAGE, Mitchell College encourages families to save and plan for the cost of education, and for doing so, we reward you by promising to give any child sponsored in SAGE a scholarship at least equal to the size of their Tuition Reward. To be eligible families must submit their Tuition Reward to us at the time of application.

SAGE stands for "Savings And Growth for Education" and members receive a normal return on their investments - dividends, interest and growth - AND an additional 5% "rebate" in reduced tuition. Students may receive Tuition Rewards from multiple "sponsors", such as parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles.
