A scholarship is the best kind of financial aid because it doesn't need to be repaid.
So take some time to exhaust your private scholarship possibilities. Who knows? Maybe your church or school has a scholarship fund for its members or students. Every little bit helps!
Bethel-controlled grants and scholarships will be reduced if students' total gift aid from all sources exceeds the financial aid budget for tuition, fees, room, board, books, and supplies. If you have any questions about this policy and how it would impact your financial aid, please contact your financial aid counselor.
