FINANCIAL AID

Federal Student Aid (Pell Grant)

Grants provide money to help students further their education and skills after high school. For many students , these grants provide a foundation of financial aid, to which aid from other federal sources may be added. Unlike loans, grants do not have to be repaid. To apply for the grant, please visit www.studentloans.gov, create a personal pin number, and then go to FAFSA. You may also apply here at TSB. If asked, our school code is 009567. This application is FREE….please do not apply at any sites that require a payment to process your FAFSA. Currently, the maximum Pell Grant award for the esthetics program is $5304. If you have questions, please call us and we will be happy to assist you.

Loans

There are two types of loans available to those TSB esthetics students who qualify. One type of loan is the federal loan (aka Direct Loan). This is a low interest rate loan that does not have to be paid back until 6 months after the student leaves school. To apply, go to www.studentloans.gov, complete the Entrance Loan Counseling, complete the Electronic Master Promissory Note (E-MPN), print those out and bring them to the school. The other type of loan is a private student loan through the Sallie Mae Corporation. Although this loan is income and credit-based (co-signers are often needed), one of the main advantages of the private loan is that students may borrow the entire cost of their training, plus up to 60% more than their cost of tuition in order to help them with living expenses while they are in school. You may visit them online at www.salliemae.com. As always, please call us and we will be glad to assist you in any way as this process is often a little overwhelming.
