Financial Aid Handbook

Scholarships and Grants
To avoid burdening students with long-term debt, LCOOU has chosen not to offer student loans. As a result, grants and scholarships play an even more critical role in offsetting the costs associated with attending the University. For more information on scholarships please visit our website at Scholarships or contact the Financial Aid Office.
