CTU Connection Grant
CTU has established a grant to assist eligible
students with the opportunity to attend CTU. To be eligible for the Connection Grant, a candidate must satisfy the CTU Program for McDonald's Students
requirements.
In addition to the CTU General Grant and Scholarship Conditions,
students must also meet the following criteria:
- A
student must complete the financial aid application process, including the
Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) prior to first course
start date (Complete the Financial Aid process and all required
paperwork);
- Students must be current on any payment arrangement to
receive future CTU Connection Grant disbursements;
- The grant will be applied to the student's account per
term based on the availability of funds;
- Academic year grant amounts will be awarded based on
the following FAFSA Estimated Family Contribution (EFC) calculations;
EFC of 0, awarded up
to $3000 based on need;
EFC of 1 – 5199,
awarded up to $1000 based on need;
- CTU Connection Grant is only eligible for online undergraduate students (associate and bachelor's);
- Students must attend CTU at an academic pace of at least 12 credits per academic
quarter;
- When combined with all other sources of gift aid
available to the student (e.g. federal/state financial aid grants,
employer tuition assistance, etc.) the CTU Connection Grant may not exceed the
total direct cost for the term. If other aid sources are received
after the grant has disbursed, the grant will be reduced accordingly;
- The grant can be combined with Post 9/11 GI Bill® and Vocational Readiness and Employment benefits.
