As a student at TEDS, I’ve been able to draw on the experience of both my professors and fellow students.
Distance Education and Financial Aid
Scholarship Eligibility
- Students charged the DE rate are not eligible for scholarship aid from the financial aid office (note that the DE rate is already approximately 50% less than the campus rate).
- Students charged the regular Deerfield rate are eligible to apply for scholarship aid, provided they are accepted in a degree program.
Student Loan Eligibility
In order for students to receive federal loans student must meet the following requirements:
- must be a degree seeking student (not visiting)
- must be taking courses toward their degree
- must be registered for at least 5 credit hours in the semester
- must complete a FAFSA
Note the following:
- A student may meet the 5 credit hours requirement in a semester by a combination of Deerfield and DE classes or in DE alone.
- Loan eligibility is determined by a number of factors, including tuition charges.
- In addition to completing the FAFSA, students should contact the Financial Aid Office regarding their desire for loans.
- Any change in enrollment will affect a student’s loan eligibility. If a student reduces their course load below 5 hours, any loan money received will be returned.
