Financial AidPresidio School of Management believes you are making a great investment in your life and will strive to make this program affordable for you. Financial aid may make it possible for you to borrow money at a low interest rate. If you intend to apply to our MPA program, there are steps you should take immediately to ensure sufficient time to process your financial aid package for the upcoming semester. To expedite the financial aid and loan application process, we strongly encourage you to obtain a Department of Education PIN Number. Go to www.pin.ed.gov/pinindex.htm and click on Apply for a PIN. The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is available online at http://www.fafsa.ed.gov. You will need your most recent federal income tax return or an estimate of your income to complete the form. Since Presidio School of Management is an affiliate of Alliant International University, you will need to input the Alliant code, 011117, when completing the online FAFSA form and obtaining a PIN #. Once the FAFSA information is received, the Office of Financial Aid at Alliant International University may ask you to send additional documents. Once you have successfully applied for financial aid, been accepted into the program and given an Alliant ID number, an award letter will be created for you. One to two weeks after you receive your ID number, please go to Alliant’s financial aid Web page. Click on the “Your award letter” link and follow instructions to view and accept your offer of financial aid. Find out How to Apply to the Presidio MPA program. |
