Financial Aid

Christian Brothers University is committed to being a partner along with the student and family in financing a CBU education. Resources may also be supplied by the state, federal government, or private donors. After acceptance to the University, students are encouraged to fill out and submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) at www.fafsa.gov.

Components of the financial aid package may include scholarships, academic awards, federal or state grants, University and privately funded grants, federal, University or private loans, and student employment. The University will work with each student and family to find those packages best suited to individual needs and circumstances.

To continue federal and state awards once the student is enrolled, the student must maintain the requirements of the Financial Aid Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy and Letter of Scholarship renewal policy. This is available to students online.

The Federal Government selects approximately 33% of those who apply for Title IV aid to go through a process of verification. This will be indicated on the Student Aid Report the student receives from the central processor and communicated to the student from the Financial Aid Office. Documents needed to complete the verification process (such as an IRS tax transcript) will be requested from the student. Policies concerning the verification process are available in the Student Financial Aid Office.
