State Technical College of Missouri
Federal Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant (SEOG). This program is available to students with exceptional financial need. Once the Pell Grant has been processed, SEOG awards are provided to those students with the lowest expected family contribution based upon the availability of funds. Awards are issued at the discretion of the Office of Financial Aid.
Federal College Work Study. Jobs at the college are available to students who have financial need and who wish to earn a monthly paycheck by working a part-time job on campus. Students apply for work study by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form.
If determined eligible, the college will notify the student
to visit the Office of Financial Aid at the beginning of the semester for a job assignment. Jobs include food service, clerical work and maintenance, and are based on availability of funds.
*Federal Direct Stafford Student Loan. This loan program allows students to borrow loans in their name at low interest rates. Students apply by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form. Through this program there is both a “subsidized” interest loan and an “unsubsidized” interest loan. The federal maximum for a first-year degree-seeking dependent student is $5,500, of which no more than $3,500 can be subsidized. Second- year degree-seeking dependent students may borrow a maximum of $6,500, of which no more than $4,500 can be subsidized. Independent students and dependent students whose parent is denied a PLUS loan due to credit, can receive up to an additional $4,000 unsubsidized loan funds. Students that are doing pre-requisite course work are eligible for $2,625. Repayment begins six months after leaving school with a fixed interest rate not to exceed 8.25 percent.
*Federal Direct Parent (PLUS) Loan. Parents of dependent students may borrow an amount not greater than the cost of education minus any student financial aid. Repayment starts 60 days after the loan has been fully disbursed. Parents may discuss deferment options with their lender. Parents must pass a credit check to be accepted for a PLUS loan. The interest rate is a fixed rate that will not exceed nine (9) percent.
Private/Alternative Loan. This option will only be available if lenders continue to offer private loans. Students must apply for all federal financial aid prior to applying for a private loan. Students must apply with a lender to have a credit check run. Students who have little or no credit may need a credit-worthy co-signer. Students must be enrolled full-time and must be a student in good standing. Interest rates are variable and determined by the lender based on the borrower’s credit score. Most private loans start repayment six months after leaving college. Check with the lender regarding fees associated with the private loan.
*Note: Most Federal Student Loans will be credited to student accounts by electronic funds transfer (EFT) on the 31st day of each semester. Students will receive notification that their account has been credited by EFT and will be given the opportunity to cancel the loan(s) at that time.
Displaced Homemakers and Single Parents. Displaced homemakers and single parents may be able to apply for small grants. These grants are based on the availability of funding. See Director of Financial Aid for criteria.
Access Missouri Grant Program. Missouri residents apply for this grant by completing the Free Application for Federal Aid (FAFSA). The FAFSA must be received by April 1 to be considered for this grant. Students must also be enrolled full-time, maintain a 2.500 cumulative grade point average, and have an Expected Family Contribution (EFC) figure below $12,000. (Based upon availability of state funding and subject to change by action of the Missouri General Assembly).
Missouri A+ Schools Program. State Technical College of Missouri participates in the A+ Program, created by the Outstanding Schools Act of 1993. Eligible students who have graduated from an A+ high school have incentive funds available that cover the standard tuition and fees that are assessed to every full-time student. Housing, books, course and program specific fees, such as professional licensing, tools, supply items, etc., are not reimbursed through the A+ Schools Program. A+ students are required to apply for Federal Financial Aid using the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) each year. Students must complete the financial aid process within the first 30 days each semester to ensure funding. (Based upon availability of state funding and subject to change by action of the Missouri General Assembly and guidelines received from the Missouri Department of Higher Education).
