Financial Aid

I receive an ok amount of financial aid. It is not hard to get but it is not as easy as you would expect either. I would suggest you go to the financial aid office on campus in person because you will KNOW what your paperwork status is.

Drug Use

The drugs scene is probably there but no one knows about it. I have never seen anyone doing drugs on campus. Our campus has many many many police officers and they are great at keeping our campus clean.
