In the year 2002 Cecil students were given over 1 million dollars in grants and scholarships. This was a reality due to the fact that the institution considers that money should not be a restraint in order to get enrolled in a high-quality college and reach professional and personal success. This is the reason why they provide financial aid and scholarships for those students who qualify.
There are two types of scholarships to which students are allowed to apply: the Merit-based one, which is assigned to those individuals who have a great GPA and the Need-based one, which is the kind of scholarship that is exclusive for people who are unable to pay for their education. In order to acquire these grants it is imperative that students submit the FAFSA (the Free Application for Federal Student Aid) once it is completed.
