Financial Aid:
Financing an education begins with proper planning. Therefore, all applicants are scheduled to meet with a Financial Aid Associate to develop a personalized plan to meet their educational expenses.

How to Apply:
Each year, aid applicants must submit a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). This application may be submitted in person to the Financial Aid Office or online at www.fafsa.ed.gov. The Financial Aid Office may request additional documentation to support a student’s request for financial assistance, including signed copies of federal income tax returns. The student’s financial aid package cannot be finalized until the Financial Aid Office has received all requested documentation.

Dover Business College aid will be awarded by the Financial Aid Director according to institutional guidelines for each aid program.
