TYPES OF FINANCIAL AID
TYPES OF FINANCIAL AID
Merit-based aid
Merit-based aid includes a variety of talents and interests: academic, artistic, athletic, interest, work, background, and so on. Scholarships are the most common type of merit-based aid (though some do have a need-based component), which may come from the school or from outside sources.
Need-based aid
Federal student aid is need-based and eligibility is based solely on the assets and income of the prospective student and his or her family. Factors such as test scores or athletic ability have no bearing on need-based aid. The Obama Scholars Program at ASU is one example.
