More information regarding the financial assistance schemes can be accessed on TUC’s official financial aid page at http://www.tuw.edu/admissions/tuition/financial-aid-information/. The annual family income of the applicants is also considered for determining the total financial assistance that they will be eligible for. Students whose family income per annum is less than $30,000 will receive a federal aid of $11,397 on average in a year. The average aid amount stands at $6,160 for an annual family income between $30,001 and $48,000. This amount comes to $5,833 for those who fall under the $48,001-$75,000 family income bracket. Alternatively, the candidates can also avail of monetary benefits like student loans, apart from financial grants and scholarship schemes to pay for their studies. In contrast to grants and scholarships, student loans are taken by the candidates at a certain rate of interest. Candidates are also required to repay these loans within a given period.
