Scholarships and Grants

Bloomfield College often discounts tuition by more than 30% for our students, and with the other financial aid programs we offer, a student’s out of pocket expense can be as low as $0 per year!

Financial Aid is a combination of many types of resources. The award a student receives from Bloomfield College is based not only on merit, but also need based federal and state grants, federal loans, and work study. Typically we categorize financial aid in three ways: Scholarships, Grants, and Self-Help (Loans).

After you apply for aid we use that information to determine your eligibility for the federal, state, and institutional programs. The sooner you complete the aid application process, the sooner you will receive an award letter that details all the programs you qualify for. Some offers of aid may require follow-up, further instructions will be included with subsequent award notification.
