Although tuition at Northwest ranks among the lowest in Mississippi, scholarships,
loans, grants and work-study are available to qualified students through the college’s
financial aid program.
This booklet is designed to make your application for financial aid an easy step. We will
answer any questions you have whether you are beginning the financial aid process
or are a returning student. The major responsibility of the Northwest Financial Aid
Department is to inform students of financial opportunities in order to meet postsecondary
costs through a program of grants, loans, work-study and scholarships.
The secret to an easy financial aid application process is meeting deadlines and taking
care of paperwork in a timely fashion. So, let’s get started!
