How to Apply and Deadlines to Apply

How to Apply

To apply for financial aid, students complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). By completing the required FAFSA, students may be considered for federal, state, and Labouré College of Healthcare financial aid. The quickest and easiest way to apply is online at https://studentaid.gov/sa/fafsa

To fully utilize the online application, students (and their parents, if relevant) may obtain Federal Student Aid (FSA) usernames and passwords from the US Department of Education to sign in and then complete the FAFSA application electronically. Students can obtain FSA usernames at https://studentaid.gov/fsa-id/create-account/launch.

If students do not have internet access at home, they may use the college library or computer lab. Students may also make an appointment with the Financial Aid Office for assistance with completing the FAFSA. Students will be asked to provide Labouré’s Federal School Code (006324) when completing the FAFSA. Students should read all instructions carefully and answer questions accurately. Students should respond in a timely manner to requests for information by the Financial Aid Office. Students may be required to submit verification forms, copies of their federal tax return transcripts from the IRS, and other information. The Department of Financial Aid will notify students via the student’s Labouré College of Healthcare email, or for prospective students, the email address provided on the FAFSA, if they are required to supply further verification or if they have been awarded financial aid.

Financial Aid has two websites where students can view the status of their financial aid. If a student has missing documents, they will be first directed to https://laboure.studentforms.com where they can view, complete, and/or download or upload any needed documentation. Once all documentation is completed, students will be directed to https://financialaid.laboure.edu where students will be able to view, modify, and accept their financial aid awards. 

Adjustment of Financial Aid

All financial aid awards from Labouré College of Healthcare are based on information provided by the applicant and are subject to review and revisions and/or cancelations due to changes in federal, state, or institutional regulations or policies, changes to the applicant's expected family contribution (EFC), receipt of additional financial aid, receipt of VA educational benefits, or an error made in the calculation of eligibility or calculation of any award by the college or donor. Labouré College of Healthcare reserves the right to correct clerical or computational errors that may result in an over award or under award.

 

Labouré College of Healthcare reserves the right to review, adjust, or cancel awards at any time because of changes in a student's financial, academic status, academic program, enrollment status (full-time to part-time), or student's code of conduct violations, or if the student fails to meet the requirements of the College's Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy. Awards are contingent upon actual receipt and verification of funds by Labouré College of Healthcare. If adjustments are made to the College's federal and/or state allocations, the College reserves the right to adjust individual institutional aid awards at the beginning of each semester, as necessary. All students' financial aid awards, including college institutional aid, are contingent on the availability of funds. The Financial Aid Office reserves the right to review and cancel awards at any time.

 

Students receiving outside assistance must notify the Financial Aid Office. At no time can total assistance (including scholarships and loans from outside agencies) exceed the cost of attendance.

Deadlines to Apply

The priority deadline is May 1 for fall semester financial aid, November 1 for spring semester financial aid, and April 1 for summer semester financial aid. Students are required to meet these deadlines to receive maximum consideration for all types of financial aid. Students may complete the FAFSA after the semester priority deadline, but they will be considered for financial aid on a funds-available basis. All students are strongly encouraged to complete the FAFSA by the priority deadline.
