Northeastern Junior College offers a variety of financial assistance programs for both full-time and part-time students. These programs include Grants, Work-Study, Scholarships, Tuition Assistance and Loans with approximately 93% of our students receiving some form of aid. Our office is located in the Hays Student Center, Room 120, and is open from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., M-F.

To be eligible for financial assistance, students must apply for admission to NJC. The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) starts the process for the majority of our programs offered. We have a priority deadline date of March 1st, but students are eligible for aid by submitting the FAFSA throughout the year.

*Students who have accepted direct loans through the NJC financial aid office, Loan Letters have been sent to your student email account.
