Financial Planning
Veterans benefits, including housing allowances and books stipends sent directly to the student, will be treated as other outside scholarships for the purposes of determining remaining institutional grant eligibility. Frances Perkins Scholarships will be reduced by the amount of veterans tuition benefits.
