FINANCIAL AID

Financial aid is money to help pay for your college education. Scholarships, grants, loans, and work-study opportunities can help make your education more affordable! The Office of Student Aid provides support to New Kensington students who receive one or more of the four basic types of financial aid as well as students who qualify for veteran's benefits.
