Financial Aid Brochure

FINANCIAL AID We understand tuition and related costs can play a big role in the college selection process. Whether you enroll as an undergraduate, graduate, or Doctor of Chiropractic student, knowing the funds are there to cover the investment in a top quality education gives you the freedom and peace of mind to concentrate on your studies. If meeting educational costs is a concern, we encourage you to apply for financial aid, regardless of family financial circumstances. About 85 percent of Life University students receive aid in the form of grants, loans, campus employment and/or scholarships. To receive the strongest consideration for the most desirable aid programs, you should complete a financial aid application at the beginning of each calendar year as soon as you receive your Federal Income Tax information. The goal of our Student Financial Aid Office is to provide financial access to LIFE’s world-class education to as many qualified students as possible. We achieve this goal by offering a wide array of scholarships, grants, loans and employment opportunities. A financial aid counselor will work very closely with you to answer questions.
