Financial Aid and Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress

Office of Student Financial Services: Sam Metz (finaid@marietta.edu)

The Marietta College financial aid programs make a Marietta education accessible to those who, for financial reasons, might otherwise be unable to attend. Whereas the family has the responsibility to meet college costs to the extent it is able, Marietta College tries to build a partnership with each family that will bridge the gap between the family’s contribution and College costs.

Application Process

To apply for assistance through the federal financial aid programs, students must submit to the federal processor the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). In many states, including Ohio and Pennsylvania, this form also serves as the vehicle through which students apply for state assistance. The FAFSA is generally available in January online at studentaid.gov or from the Marietta College Office of Student Financial Services.

To be considered for assistance, students must be citizens of the United States and must be formally admitted to one of the College’s degree programs.
