Student Financial Aid

ALL COMMUNICATIONS REGARDING YOUR FINANCIAL AID AWARDS AND REVISIONS TO AWARDS WILL BE BY E-MAIL.

Current Students: Before you consider withdrawing, from any course(s) meet with a financial aid representative first to determine if you will owe money back to Hagerstown Community College and how your future financial aid will be affected.

Financial aid consists of grants, loans, scholarships, and employment opportunities which are available to help students pay for the cost of attending the post-secondary institution of their choice. Financial aid resources are intended to supplement, not replace, the financial resources of the family.

For further details about financial aid visit the following Web site: mapping-your-future.org and review "Paying for School."
