As a private educational institution, St. Joseph Seminary at Loyola
University recognizes that many students usually find a gap between
what they and their families can contribute, and what it costs to
attend college. Grants and the work-study program fill that gap. Grant
sources can be the federal government, the State of Illinois,
miscellaneous outside sources, or the college itself. In addition to
grants, St. Joseph's work-study program provides jobs on campus.
A student demonstrated need is determined from a review
of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). A
determination is made of the estimated resources available to the
student. The difference between these resources and the institutional
budget determines the demonstrated financial need.
Once the FAFSA is filed, students who are U.S. citizens or permanent residents are eligible for financial assistance from the following listed programs which
are administered by the Office of Student Financial Assistance at Loyola University.
ILLINOIS STATE MONETARY AWARDS are awarded on the basis of financial
need and Illinois residency. The amount of the award varies. The
individual dollar amount is subject to annual appropriations by the
Illinois General Assembly. For the 2008-09 academic year, the maximum award amount is $4968. Undergraduates, who have
not already received a baccalaureate degree and/or have not completed
150 semester hours, are eligible to receive up to five years of
full-time assistance under this program. Undergraduates enrolled for at
least 6 credit hours each term may be eligible for assistance.
PELL GRANTS are awarded on the basis of financial need.

each term may be eligible for assistance.
