How am I going to pay for my education? Students have a number of resources available at Athens State.
Athens State has Federal, State, Institutional and Outside funding sources, including Grant Programs, loan programs for students and parents and institutional scholarships. Athens State funds more than 80 scholarships annually. In addition, the Athens State University Foundation and the University's Alumni Association offer more than 80 scholarships awarded annually. Information on other scholarship sources is also available.
Our goal in Financial Aid is to assist the students in securing a quality education without missing an opportunity because of their financial situation.
The Student Financial Services Office has two major objectives:
1. To supplement the efforts of the student and parents of the student in meeting educational costs.
2. To provide financial aid to students who would be unable to attend this institution without such assistance.
The Office is committed to meeting the following goals:
1. ensure compliance with federal, state and institutional regulations and policy requirements governing student financial aid services,
2. maintain funding sources by ensuring program integrity through ongoing staff training and continuing education, external audits, and self evaluations,
3. maximize funds available for Athens State University students to meet their costs of attendance, supplementing the efforts of students and parents in meeting educational goals, and
4. providing quality financial assistance services effectively and efficiently.
