Carroll Financial Aid

At Carroll, there are a number of resources available to you, even if you and your family can only afford to pay a portion of your college expenses. Financial aid options include loans, grants, scholarships, and work-study programs.

The Financial Aid Shopping Sheet is a consumer tool created by the Obama Administration to help simplify the information consumers receive about costs and financial aid, so that they can easily compare institutions and make informed decisions about where to attend school. You may view a sample shopping sheet and obtain additional information by visiting the U.S. Department of Education Website. 

Loan Default Rates (Cohort Default Rates)

Carroll College has one of the lowest student loan default rates in the country.  There are two reasons for the low student loan default rate.  One reason is that our students get great jobs and have success after graduation.  The other reason is that our graduates receive good advice on loan debt and repayment, and they are prepared for what happens next.  Students utilizing VA educational benefits or DoD Tuition Assistance will receive a Shopping Sheet disclosing Carroll College's most recent LDR/CDR rates.  In the event that Carroll's student loan default rate exceeds the national average, student's will be notified accordingly and Carroll College will implement reductive measures in accordance with the U.S. Department of Education and Title IV of the Higher Education Act (HEA) of 1965, as amended.  

For more information regarding student loan default rates, please visit the links below or contact the Financial Aid Office at (406) 447-5425.
