Considering the Financial Aid Option top of page

You may want to consider applying for financial aid if either your benefits do not cover the cost of tuition up-front, such as with the Montgomery GI Bill®, or if you know only part of the cost of tuition will be covered, for example: Post-9/11 GI Bill® under the 100% benefit level.

Thomas Edison State University provides a College Financing Plan (CFP) formerly known as Financial Aid Shopping Sheet to help you estimate the cost of attending Thomas Edison State University during the current Academic Year, and identify potential sources of financial aid so you can easily compare Thomas Edison State University with other institutions and make an informed decision about where to attend school.
