Money Monday Blog - May 4
Welcome to Money... Tuesday? We're a bit late this week, but that's because we're hard at work processing the 11 donor funded scholarships that came due this week, and the STEM Forward Scholarship. While you're stuck in the house, take some time and look into scholarships. Even if it's a small $500 scholarship, that is still at least a month of loan payments that you don't have to worry about!
If you're looking to stay informed about the state of Financial Aid during the COVID-19 Crisis, we resources available on the front page of our Financial Aid home page. If you're a graduating senior that is worried about having to start payment on loans, remember that you have that six month grace period, and that the federal government has stopped payment and interest accrual on all federally held loans until at least the end of September. If you have a private loan and need some payment relief, we highly recommend you reach out to your service provider!
If you have any questions at all during this time, MSOE's Financial Aid Office is here for you! Mail us documents, send us an email if you have questions, or give us a call! We still have "walk in" counselors available everyday from 8am to 4:30pm via phone.
Please Note: If you have a scholarship check to turn in for the 2020-2021 academic year to apply to your Financial Aid, it will not be processed until after July 1st, 2020.
