Study at Miami-Jacobs is a wise investment in your future. To help with the cost, we will talk with you about qualifying for a package of assistance (after your Discovery Session). We also will give you a copy of The Student Guide from the Department of Education to help you understand the financial aid process.

Some of our statistics:

• 95% of Miami-Jacobs students take advantage of some form of financial/tuition assistance.
• 66% were awarded Federal or state grants in 2002 (money that does not need to be paid back).
• 90% qualified for government or other student loans in 2002 (money that needs to be paid back.) 

After you meet with a Career Advocate for your Discovery Session, you will need to bring certain items to your financial appointment, according to your dependency status. One of our professional financial aid representatives will personally take you through the financial aid application process.

If you are an independent student, you would need to bring:

• Your most current completed Federal Income Tax return (note: spouse’s as well if filed separately)
• Your most current W2s (from all sources of income)
• Driver’s license or State I.D.

If you are a dependent student, you would need to bring:

• Your most current completed Federal Income Tax return if you filed one. You also will need to bring a copy of your parent’s return.
• Your most current W2s (from all sources of income)
• Driver’s license or State I.D.
