The primary goal of the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships is to provide financial assistance to students who, without such aid, would be unable to attend college. Although the student and family are expected to provide the primary resources for financing a college education, Sinclair will make every effort to meet the difference between the student's costs and the amount the family is able to pay. Awards are made on a non-discriminatory basis and can be withheld only if a student does not meet stated policies.

The key to financing your education is to start planning early and to keep your options open. The more you know about how financial aid works, the better prepared you will be to pay for college.
