Let’s face it – financing a college education these days is a challenge for nearly
everyone. The Office of Financial Aid is committed to helping students and families
meet that challenge. For most, investment in an education at Lander University will require
applying for financial aid - and we're here to help you!
We offer a number of ways to assist you in meeting the needs associated with the cost of
obtaining a college education. We will gladly help you with the completion of the various
forms and applications required to apply for federal and state financial aid and other
financial aid programs.
If you have any questions or concerns about financial aid, we encourage you to
contact our office. We're here to help you!
