Emmanuel College is proud to work with various private lenders that offer educational loans outside of the Direct Stafford Loan program. Should you require an educational loan you can review a list of lenders used by EC students in the past. This list can be found here: Historical Lender List (hosted by ELM).
AmeriCorps provides full-time educational awards in return for community service. You can work before, during or after your post-secondary education, and you can use the funds either to pay current educational expenses or to repay federal student loans. For more information, call 1-800-942-2677 or visit http://www.americorps.org/
Business & Labor Organizations
Businesses and labor organizations: Many companies, businesses and labor organizations have programs to help employees or members and their families pay for post-secondary education. Ask about scholarship programs and the application process.
Organizations: Foundations, religious organizations, fraternities or sororities and civic clubs offer student financial aid. Also, search community organizations and civic groups such as the YMCA, 4-H Club, Kiwanis, Rotary, the Girl or Boy Scouts, etc. Organizations connected with your field of interest can also be helpful.
U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs
U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs: If you (or your spouse) are a veteran or you are the dependent of a veteran, veterans’ educational benefits may be available. Information is available at www.gibill.va.gov or call 1-888-442-4551.
The Emmanuel College Veteran’s Benefits contact is Debra Grizzle, the Registrar. She functions as the certifying official for Emmanuel and can assist you with processing benefits. Find out more on the Registrar’s page.
Public Libraries & the Iternet
Public libraries and the Internet are excellent sources of information on state and private sources of financial aid. When using either, search using keywords like “financial aid,” “student aid,” “scholarships,” etc. Some examples include:
