How to Apply for Financial Aid

Each student who applies for Financial Aid must complete the following:

  1. Admission requirements
  2. The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) initiates the Student Aid Report (SAR), which is mailed to the student from the Central Processing system (CPS). The Institutional Student Information Record (ISIR) is sent to the college from CPS. The ISIR is the official determinant for the Federal Pell Grant, Federal Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) and Federal College Work Study (FCWS) which is used as the authorization for the Financial Aid Office to provide Federal Title IV funding to the student. At Turtle Mountain Community College, Federal Title IV funding is disbursed in the form of Federal Pell Grant, FSEOG and FCWS. TMCC does not participate in the federal loan programs. Upon receipt of the ISIR, the student will be informed if they are eligible to receive Federal Title IV funding.
