Need-based financial aid
Institutional grants
Brenau sets aside a considerable portion of its financial aid budget for institutional grants for students who demonstrate financial need that exceeds the amount covered by federal and state awards. Students do not apply for these grants, they are determined and awarded by the Financial Aid Office.
Federal Student Aid
The Federal Pell Grant, Federal Direct Loan, Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, and Federal Work-Study programs are funded by the federal government. Eligibility is determined by a review of your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). To submit a FAFSA application, visit studentaid.gov.
