Doctorate of Physical Therapy - Graduate Level
Financial Aid Eligibility
- Students must complete the FAFSA and IDF by April 1. For financial aid purposes, students are now considered to be independent - no parental information is needed on the FAFSA.
- Since the first bachelor's degree has been earned, students are no longer eligible to receive federal and state grants or institutional grant-in-aid.
- Students who complete the financial aid application process will be awarded a physical therapy student grant equal to one-third of the graduate tuition rate.
- Stafford Loan eligibility increases to a maximum of $8,500 subsidized and $12,000 unsubsidized for a total of $20,500 per year. In addition, students may apply for a credit-based Graduate PLUS loan. This loan is a federally funded loan program; therefore, it is the best loan for graduate students who need additional funding. Students may borrow up to the total cost of education minus other financial aid. There is a 4% origination fee, low fixed interest rate, and no payments required while in school at least half-time.
