Financial Aid Counseling
Financial aid counseling addresses a critical
need of UHD's students. Because many come from low-income families,
they are often called upon to contribute to the family income at
the expense of their academic careers. Relieving students of their
financial obligations to their families increases the possibility
of their academic success. Financial aid also reduces the stress
associated with tuition costs, thereby influencing student retention.
Academic counselors are working with UHD'S Office of Financial Aid
to assist students in securing and completing application materials
for federal, state and private grants and scholarships, and in acquiring
family financial information. Financial aid packets are mailed each
spring to all El Paso Scholars, and the Learners' Community financial
aid counselor works closely with scholarship coordinators at Jeff
Davis High School and the El Paso Corporate Foundation to assist
students in qualifying for and maintaining their scholarships.
