ETI Financial Assistance Programs

Federal Pell Grants

A Federal Pell Grant is an award that doesn’t have to be repaid. Funds are awarded to students with "exceptional financial need".

Subsidized Federal Direct Stafford Loan

A Subsidized Federal Direct Stafford Loan is a low interest loan made by the government to students. The federal government pays the interest during school attendance, for a six month grace period following school attendance, and during any periods of deferment. Eligibility for a Subsidized Stafford Loan is based on "financial need."

Unsubsidized Federal Direct Stafford Loan

An Unsubsidized Federal Direct Stafford Loan is a low interest loan made by the government to students. Students do not have to demonstrate "need" in order to obtain this loan.

Federal Direct Plus Loan

A Federal Direct PLUS Loan is a low interest loan made by the government to the parents of a "dependent" student. The loan application is subject to lender credit approval.
