Financial Information
Outside Resource/Funds
The Financial Aid Office must be notified of any outside resources or funding that a student receives. This includes outside scholarships. Please contact Financial Aid with questions.
Scholarships
Dunwoody’s Financial Aid Office has both donor-funded and internal scholarships that they award to students. To be considered for these scholarships, students must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). For some awards, a Thank You letter must be submitted to the Financial Aid Office by the appropriate deadline before the funds can be applied toward a student’s balance. Failure to submit the required Thank You letter by the deadline may result in the scholarship funds being removed from the eligibility package and redistributed to someone else.
Veteran Benefits
Students who receive veterans benefits are responsible for any materials and/or textbooks they charge to their student account; as well as any charges that are not covered by VA benefits and/or Yellow Ribbon. Balances are due by the published due dates. For more information regarding veteran benefits and financial aid, visit the Veteran & Military Student website.
Drug Convictions and Financial Aid
Students with drug convictions are eligible for federal financial aid if they meet all other eligibility requirements, unless they are subject to a federal drug abuse hold on receiving certain federal benefits.
