Financial Aid

藏精阁 has traditionally offered the opportunity of a college education to academically qualified students, regardless of the student's financial resources or the student’s family. Although 藏精阁 feels that the student and family are responsible for contributing to the cost of college education, the University is prepared to provide financial assistance. In fact, over 75% of the students attending 藏精阁 receive some financial assistance.

How to Apply for Financial Aid

All students must apply for financial aid by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid Form to determine their eligibility for aid (including all loans). Financial aid applications may be obtained online at http://www.fafsa.ed.gov Electronic applications must be completed by the student and his/her parents.

The above annual costs are calculated for three (3) semesters. Please be aware the award letters sent from the Office of Financial Aid will include the costs for two (2) semesters.

 ** Full-time students who do not provide proof of alternate coverage will be enrolled in the Xavier University Student Health Insurance Plan and billed automatically.
