    Student Aid and Financial Assistance

    How to Pay for College

    • Federal Student Aid Updates

      Federal Student Aid Updates

      

      Working Families Tax Cuts Act (WFTCA), also known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA)

      The Working Families Tax Cuts Act (WFTCA), also known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), was signed into law by President Trump on July 4, 2025. The legislation includes significant changes to federal student aid programs. The changes are expected to be effective July 1, 2026, for the 2026-2027 academic year forward. The changes include:

      • Federal Direct Loan Proration for Less than Full-Time Enrollment
      • Federal Loan Limit changes
      • Pell Grant Eligibility changes
      • Loan Repayment Plan changes

      View examples and more information regarding Federal Student Aid Updates.

    • Applying for Financial Aid

      Applying for Financial Aid

      To apply for federal student aid, like federal grants, work-study, and loans, it's necessary to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®). This application is free to submit and more straightforward than in the past. It opens the door to the most substantial source of financial aid to help cover the costs of college or career school. Additionally, the FAFSA® information is used by many states and colleges to assess eligibility for state and institutional aid. Some private financial aid providers also rely on FAFSA® data to decide on a candidate's qualification for their offered aid.


      FAFSA® Form Information

      1. Go to studentaid.gov, and create a Federal Student Aid (FSA) ID
      2. Gather required documents
      3. Obtain the Federal School Code for institutions you want to receive your FAFSA® Form (select the School Codes tab for Rasmussen University codes)
      4. Gather contributor information (if applicable)
      5. Fill in personal information
      6. Save your FAFSA® application
      7. Sign and submit the FAFSA®

      For additional tips on successfully completing your FAFSA form, read the Federal Student Aid Pro Tips resource.


      Get started on your application by watching our "FAFSA: Tutorial" video.

      Aid application timeline

      • We encourage students to submit the FAFSA® application as soon as they consider attending the University.
      • The aid application process takes approximately two to six weeks if requested student documentation is submitted accurately and timely.
      • The federal deadline for filing the FAFSA® application is June 30th of the applicable award year. However, the University must receive the valid results of the FAFSA® application while the student is still enrolled for aid eligibility to be determined.
    • After Applying for Financial Aid

      After Applying for Financial Aid

      Submit All Requested Documents to Rasmussen University

      Once Rasmussen University has received the results of your FAFSA®, we will notify you, via email, of any required documents that you will need to submit. You can review any request for required documents at any time in the Account Center on the Student Portal.

      Rasmussen University's Student Financial Aid team cannot review your application for financial aid until all necessary documentation has been received. It is your responsibility to complete your financial aid application file, so take a proactive approach to ensure that you have done everything you need to do. If you have not submitted all requested financial aid eligibility documentation by the beginning of the fifth (5th) week of the quarter, a payment plan will be created for the full balance owed. You still have the opportunity to submit all requested financial aid eligibility documents to have your aid eligibility determined; however, the payment plan will remain active until such time as the balance is paid in full.

      Loan Entrance Counseling and Master Promissory Note

      If you are interested in receiving Federal Direct Loans, you’ll need to complete both Loan Entrance Counseling and a Master Promissory Note (MPN).

      We also encourage you to complete the Student Loan Acknowledgement annually at studentaid.gov, which highlights your responsibilities as a borrower, your current federal loan indebtedness (if any), aggregate loan limits and repayment plans.

      Receiving Your Financial Aid Award Notification

      When your financial aid file is complete (i.e., all documents requested have been submitted), it will be reviewed by Rasmussen University.

      If we need additional information:

      • A request for that information will be emailed to you, and you can view the request in the Document Center within the Account Center.

      If we have everything we need:

      • We will prepare your award package and notify you via email when your awards and Award Notification are ready for your review.

      Once available, your awards and Award Notification can be viewed in the Account Center.

      Account Center

      The Account Center within the Student Portal is your go-to place for:

      • Viewing your charges, payments and payment schedule in My Finances
      • Viewing and uploading required documents in My Documents
      • Viewing financial aid awards in My Financial Aid
      • Viewing alerts and messages in My Message Center

      Disbursing Financial Aid

      A student must be officially accepted to Rasmussen University in an eligible degree or certificate program as one of the eligibility requirements to receive and have financial aid disbursed to their student account. Rasmussen University begins disbursing financial aid no earlier than three weeks into the term. Funds are first applied to your tuition and fee charges. Any remaining funds (excess funds) are disbursed to you, the student. Your student account will show an unpaid balance until this disbursement occurs. If the aid you are eligible to receive does not cover your charges, a Student Payment Plan is created and can be viewed on the Student Account Center.

    • Financial Aid Cost of Attendance

      Financial Aid Cost of Attendance

      The financial aid cost of attendance (COA) is the estimated average and reasonable cost of completing an academic year at Rasmussen University. An academic year usually consists of nine months (three quarters). The COA serves as the foundation for determining your financial need as well as the amount of financial aid, including grants, scholarships, loans, and work-study that can be offered to you. The COA can only include costs for the individual student. The Student Financial Aid Office may adjust the COA for students on a case-by-case basis to address individual, unique circumstances.

      Actual charges for tuition and fees, also known as direct charges, will be different than what is reflected in the financial aid COA because the COA is based on estimated averages.

      COA figures are established through student surveys and other research and may include the components below:

      • Tuition and Fees (based upon projected enrollment)
      • Books, Course Materials, Supplies and Equipment
      • Living Expenses
      • Personal Expenses
      • Transportation
      • Dependent Care Costs29
      • Professional Licensure Costs30

      View the estimated Financial Aid Award Cost of Attendance.

    • Loans

      Loans

      The United States federal government offers several types of loans to students who qualify. These loans are one resource to help you finance your higher education. View all necessary eligibility requirements and terms and conditions.


      Federal Direct Subsidized Loans

      These loans do not accrue interest while you are attending school at least half time. Refer to your college catalog for loan limits.

      Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loans

      These loans accrue interest at a low rate while you are attending school at least part time. Refer to your college catalog for loan limits.

      Federal Direct PLUS Loans

      These loans are borrowed by a parent for a dependent or undergraduate child or by a graduate student. Refer to your college catalog for loan limits.

      Code of Conduct

      Members of Rasmussen University's financial aid team are required to exemplify the highest level of ethical behavior and demonstrate the highest level of professionalism.

      Review our Code of Conduct

      Private/Alternative Loans

      When federal loans and other aid do not cover your cost of attendance, private or alternative educational loans may be available. Private educational loan programs are credit based and vary by lender. Because private loans are regulated by banks rather than the government, borrower benefits may vary, and students may be required to have a cosigner as part of the loan application. Terms and conditions applicable to these loans vary greatly. Factors such as interest rate, APR, length of repayment, loan minimum and maximum, and fees should be carefully considered when researching and choosing a private educational loan. If you have borrowed a private loan previously, we recommend keeping your loans with one lender. Rasmussen offers online private loan comparison tools, Credible and FastChoice. Click on either of the links below to compare lenders, and select the one that is best for you.

      Compare Private Loan Rates with Credible

      Compare Private Loan Rates with FastChoice

      Rasmussen University does not endorse, recommend or promote any lender for private loans. The listings shown on Credible and FastChoice are not preferred lender lists, nor do they represent every lender that provides private educational loans. For residents of Minnesota, you may also want to review the terms and conditions of the MN SELF Loan (www.selfloan.state.mn.us) before selecting a lender.

    • Loan Repayment

      Student Loan Repayment

      Navigating the student loan repayment process can be challenging, especially when finding the best strategies to make progress on your loans. That's why we've teamed up with ECMC Solutions to provide no-cost advice and guidance through this stressful process so you can avoid missing payments.

      ECMC Solutions is a nonprofit corporation dedicated to helping you find the repayment strategy that works best for you. You'll meet one-on-one with a student counselor based on your schedule to get relevant information and create a game plan for repayment.

      Tuition Reimbursement

      Many employers offer some level of tuition reimbursement to their employees. Whether your employer offers full or partial reimbursement, this valuable benefit can help you save money and reduce your student debt while you earn your degree. Check out the following tips to see how you can make the most of tuition reimbursement opportunities through your employer:

      1. Talk to HR about tuition options through your employer, which may include:

      • Partnerships: Your company may partner with a specific college that offers discounts.
      • Direct Pay Tuition Assistance: There may be eligibility requirements, but this option means your employer pays for whichever college you attend.
      • Tuition Reimbursement: You, the student, pay for college but are reimbursed afterward by your company.

      2. Choose courses or a program that meet(s) requirements set by your employer. However, they may require that your degree is applicable to your job.

      3. Let your employer know the benefits of the program, including what you will gain and how this will help your position in the company. Furthermore, you should prepare responses to address any concerns your employer may have (i.e., How will you balance school and work? How do you plan on using these acquired skills?).

      4. Meet with your employer to go over the benefits that both you and the company would receive in furthering your education.

      Work-Study

      We have a wide range of work-study opportunities for current students at our campuses, online and with our community service partners.

      Your Responsibilities. You must...

      • submit, by the deadline indicated, all additional documentation, verification, corrections and/or new information requested by either the Financial Aid Office or the agencies to which you submitted applications. Some examples include federal tax return transcripts, verification forms, loan entrance counseling, loan promissory notes and loan exit counseling prior to leaving school.

      • notify the University and any lenders if there are changes in your name, permanent mailing address, anticipated graduation date or enrollment status.
