Can I apply for Suffolk financial aid if Im eligible for participation in a VA educational benefits program?
Yes, students who receive VA educational benefits may apply for aid. However, certain VA benefit recipients may only be considered for Pell Grants, state entitlement grants, Stafford, PLUS, and alternative loan options. University policy stipulates: “Suffolk University students may be eligible to participate in the Yellow Ribbon or other VA education benefits programs. In such cases, Suffolk will meet any and all required VA matching funding obligations with institutional student aid dollars. These students may be eligible for Pell Grants, state grants, outside scholarships, Stafford, PLUS and alternative loans (i.e. MEFA).
