Financial Aid
Students in full- and part-time classes are eligible to apply for financial assistance through the League's own financial aid program. The League does not participate in financial aid programs sponsored by the federal or state government.
Financial aid is available to students enrolled in full-time classes in the form of work-study scholarships, grants and merit-based scholarships. Part-time students may be eligible for merit and work-study scholarships. In order to be eligible for a grant, a student must be a member of the League.
Work-study scholarships are based on documented financial need and merit and require four hours of work per week. Jobs are assigned by the scholarship coordinator and are all on campus. Grants are based on juried competition and plans of study, and require specific advanced registration at the League.
Work-Study scholarships: Tuition scholarship requiring students to work in order to pay for their class(es) on a month-to-month basis. Students may apply for work-study scholarships based on documented financial need and merit. Work-study scholarships require four hours of work per week. Jobs are assigned by the scholarship coordinator and are all on campus.
