The
Connecticut Department of Higher Education
is responsible for academic quality and
financial aid for post-secondary schooling.
They are granted $42.2 million to subsidize
student financial aid programs. Their
website provides information on how to
qualify for these benefits, along with
access to other programs for financial
assistance.
$45,850 per
year will not fit into the average
American's budget for college, however this
is the annual cost for the prestigious
Yale University.
Don't become discouraged though Yale offers
a remarkable need-based aid plan. If a
student is accepted to Yale, the University
will simply subtract the amount that the
family is able to contribute from the actual
cost and Yale covers the rest.
How does
getting paid for going to an elite school
sound? The
US government
not only pays for all expenses to attend the
Coast Guard Academy, but every Cadet also
receives an additional $8,760 per year. If
interested, start the process early for
admissions are competitive at this
prestigious academy. Persistence is the key!
