Asistir a una educación superior, ya sea la universidad o un programa CareerTech, puede ser una gran inversión en la vida. En Epic Charter Schools, sabemos que la inversión tiene un costo. Nos esforzamos por asociarnos con los estudiantes y sus familias para brindar la información, los recursos y el apoyo necesarios para encontrar y recibir ayuda financiera para aquellos que eligen la universidad o un programa CareerTech después de graduarse de la escuela secundaria. Costs Associated with Higher Education Four Main Ways to Pay for Higher Education Costos asociados a la educación superior Matrícula: La matrícula es el costo de los cursos. Cada institución y programa CareerTech cobra sus propias tarifas de matrícula. Tarifas: Las tarifas son costos que cobra la institución, incluyendo pero no limitado a cursos, instalaciones, actividades, estacionamiento y mantenimiento. Libros y materiales: La mayoría de los cursos requieren libros de texto específicos y diversos materiales, como una computadora portátil, cuadernos, bolígrafos y lápices, y materiales de laboratorio y programas especializados. Habitación y comida: a los estudiantes que elijan vivir en un campus, si el alojamiento es una opción, se les cobrará por su habitación en el dormitorio, incluida una cama, un escritorio, servicios públicos, Wi-Fi y un plan de comidas. Hay cuatro formas principales de pagar la educación superior Subvenciones: Las subvenciones suelen concederse en función de la necesidad económica. La mayoría de las subvenciones las proporcionan los gobiernos estatales o federales. La elegibilidad para las subvenciones estatales y federales suele determinarse a partir de la Solicitud Gratuita de Ayuda Federal para Estudiantes (FAFSA). Por lo general, las subvenciones no tienen que devolverse, siempre que el estudiante cumpla con todos los requisitos. Becas: Las becas se otorgan a los estudiantes en función de diversos criterios, como la necesidad económica, el rendimiento académico o el talento. Es importante revisar las reglas y los detalles oficiales de las becas para conocer los criterios de elegibilidad, los montos de las becas, las fechas límite y otra información. Las becas pueden ser ofrecidas por instituciones de educación superior, así como por diferentes organizaciones, fundaciones e individuos. La mayoría de las becas requieren que los estudiantes completen la Solicitud Gratuita de Ayuda Federal para Estudiantes (FAFSA). Las solicitudes de becas son gratuitas. Las becas no tienen que reembolsarse. Préstamos: Los préstamos son fondos prestados que deben devolverse, a menudo con intereses. Los préstamos para estudiantes pueden provenir del gobierno federal, instituciones financieras privadas u otras fuentes. Los préstamos federales para estudiantes, garantizados al completar la Solicitud Gratuita de Ayuda Federal para Estudiantes (FAFSA), pueden ofrecer muchos beneficios en comparación con otras opciones de préstamo, incluyendo una tasa de interés fija más baja, sin verificación de crédito ni cofirmante, planes de pago flexibles y posibles consideraciones de condonación del préstamo. Empleos (Programa Federal de Trabajo y Estudio): Los empleos, incluidos los puestos del Programa Federal de Trabajo y Estudio, permiten a los estudiantes ganar dinero para ayudar a pagar la universidad. La elegibilidad para el Programa Federal de Trabajo y Estudio se determina a menudo a partir de la Solicitud Gratuita de Ayuda Federal para Estudiantes (FAFSA). El Programa Federal de Trabajo y Estudio ofrece empleo a tiempo parcial, dentro o fuera del campus, para estudiantes de grado, posgrado y profesionales que estén inscritos en instituciones de educación superior participantes. ¿Epic es adecuado para usted? La Solicitud Gratuita de Ayuda Federal para Estudiantes (FAFSA, por sus siglas en inglés) es el formulario seguro que ofrece el Departamento de Educación de los Estados Unidos para la Ayuda Federal para Estudiantes y que determina la elegibilidad de los estudiantes para recibir ayuda financiera del gobierno y de la mayoría de las instituciones de educación superior. La FAFSA es la clave que abre las puertas a las oportunidades de becas, préstamos y trabajo-estudio. Muchas becas también requieren una FAFSA completa. La FAFSA recopila información personal y financiera de los estudiantes y, en muchos casos, de sus contribuyentes, y luego aplica una fórmula para determinar cuánto apoyo financiero se necesita. Información importante La FAFSA solo debe completarse durante el último año de escuela secundaria del estudiante, y luego cada año subsiguiente mientras esté inscrito en la educación superior. La FAFSA se abre a partir del 1 de diciembre de cada año.
