Financial Aid
PMI may offer financial aid to help
pay for your tuition. Once you’ve been accepted into our school, all
you need to do is meet with the Financial Aid staff
to determine your eligibility. It’s painless
and very worthwhile. We like helping out when we can.
Here are some of the Federal financial assistance
programs at our school:
Federal Pell Grant:
Provides grant aid to undergraduate students who have financial
needs and meet
other requirements for student financial aid. Maximum award
for each academic
year will depend on student and program of training eligibility.
Pell Grant is
an entitlement. The maximum award is not dependent on program
funding..
Federal SEOG
(Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant)
Maximum award for each academic year will depend on program funding. This program
is for undergraduates with exceptional financial need (evidenced by an expected
family contribution of zero) and does not require repayment.
Federal Subsidized Stafford Loan
A low interest loan for eligible students. Repayment begins
six months after the
last day of attendance. The government pays all interest
while the student is in
school and during the six month grace period.
Federal Unsubsidized Stafford Loan
A low interest loan for independent students and dependent students not eligible
for the Federal Subsidized Stafford Loan. The
government does not pay
interest on this loan.
Federal Parent Loans for Undergraduates
A low interest loan.
Eligible parents may borrow for the benefit
of their children.
Leveraging Educational Assistance
Partnership
Maximum award for each academic
year will depend on the availability of funds. This is
a grant and does not require repayment.
Campus Based Funding
How much aid you receive from campus-based programs depends on your financial
need, the amount of other aid you'll receive, and the availability of funds
at Pima Medical Institute. Unlike the Pell Grant Program, which provides funds
to every eligible student, each school participating in any of the campus-based
programs receives a certain amount of funds each year. When that money is disbursed,
there are no additional awards for that year.
Job Placement
Pima Medical Institute is serious
about finding jobs for our graduates. The Career Development
Director and members of
the faculty together help students achieve real life positions
in their chosen fields. While the school cannot guarantee
placements, we have been successful in placing the majority
of our graduates. That’s important to know.
To help students transition from program to profession, PMI
provides externships that often turn into job offers. We also
maintain active files on graduate placements and employment
opportunities. In other words, we continue to share job opportunities
even after the PMI graduate has secured employment! PMI will
help you as long as you need.
Your ability to get a job is a direct
reflection of our school…so
we really care about your success.
