Financial Aid FAQs
What is Financial Aid?
Financial aid consists of a variety of funds including grants, scholarships, loans and student employment. Most students receive a combination of funds, including grants and loans, to help pay their educational expenses. More information can be found at www.studentaid.gov.
How do I apply for financial aid?
What is verification and why was I selected?
The U.S. Department of Education randomly selects students for a process known as verification which requires the student (and parent, if applicable) to supply additional information. Your Student Aid Report will indicate if your FAFSA has been selected for this process.
Students can visit Net Partner to determine if there are any outstanding requirements, just log into the Student Portal by going to the top header of any page on Post.edu and click on Student Login.
Why didn’t I receive my financial aid?
Eligible students can expect most funds to be applied to their accounts beginning with the third week of the semester or mod provided they have completed all requirements.

How can I receive more financial aid?
Students are awarded with the maximum amount of federal financial aid for which they are eligible. Post offers institutional grants and scholarships for those who qualify. Students are encouraged to research outside scholarship opportunities as well. Parents of Dependent students can apply for a Federal Parent PLUS loan. Alternative loans may also be considered as an additional funding source. Military students may be eligible for additional benefits.
