Will my financial aid apply for LASP?

Actual costs and financial aid for participants may vary, depending on institutional policies. Each CCCU member school administrates financial aid differently for students who will not be present on campus for a given semester. The sending campus is the credit-granting institution, and so they set their own fees.  It is important to check with campus authorities so that you will know clearly what your costs will be.

In most cases, some or all of a student's regular financial aid will apply.  You must talk personally with your Financial Aid office on your campus to get a definitive answer as to exactly how much will apply to the LASP.  Those with performance-based scholarships (such as athletic or music scholarships) are most likely to see a decrease in financial aid.

In all cases, government aid, Pell grants and bank loans are required by law to continue to apply as long as a student remains enrolled in his or her home institution (and LASP students do remain enrolled in their home institution while on the program).
