The University of Maine at Presque Isle provides various forms of financial assistance to students showing financial need. The Office of Financial Aid is often able to combine several available programs into a single package. Prospective students who are interested in Financial Aid should apply for aid at the time they apply to the University for admission.
Aid Eligibility
Any United States citizen or permanent resident enrolled or planning to enroll in an academic program at the University of Maine at Presque Isle is eligible to apply for financial assistance. To be considered for aid, one must be accepted into a degree program and meet all of the eligibility requirements established by the federal government.
Application Procedures
The Free Application For Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) must be completed and submitted to the Federal Student Aid Programs in accordance with instructions on the form. This form is available online at www.fafsa.gov.
Students should submit their applications at the earliest possible date. Financial aid awards are made on a rolling basis in the order that application files become complete in the Financial Aid Office.
Satisfactory Academic Progress
Federal and State regulations require that students receiving financial aid maintain Satisfactory Academic Progress toward completion of a degree. If the minimum satisfactory academic progress is not met, the student’s aid may be terminated. Detailed information regarding this policy is available in the Office of Student Financial Services and on UMPI’s website - go to “Offices and Services”, “Financial Aid” and click on “Eligibility for Title IV Funds” for a downloadable pdf.
Federal Financial Aid Award
Federal Pell Grant
This is a federally funded grant program designed to form the foundation of all aid received. The amount of the grant is based upon the student’s cost of attendance at the school. It also varies, depending upon the number of credits for which the student is enrolled. Whenever enrollment status changes, so does the amount of the Pell Grant.
Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG)
This is a federally funded program intended for undergraduate students of exceptional financial need. FSEOG grants are available in amounts ranging from $100 to $4,000 per year, depending upon funding levels.
Federal Work Study Program
With the assistance of federal funds, the University is able to provide many employment opportunities on campus or, in some instances, in off-campus agencies. On campus work study academic year awards are determined first. If additional funds are available, off-campus and summer awards can be made. Eligible students are limited to 20 hours per week during the school term, but may work 40 hours per week during the summer or other school vacations. Eligibility is based on need.
Federal Direct Stafford Loan Program
Federal Stafford Loans are available through the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program (Direct Loan). Stafford loans are either Subsidized (the federal government pays the interest on the loan until repayment begins and during authorized periods of deferment) or Unsubsidized (students are charged interest from the time the loan is disbursed until it is paid in full). Subsidized Loans are awarded on the basis of financial need; Unsubsidized loans are not based on financial need.
Students may borrow a Subsidized Loan up to $3,500 during the first year of a program of study; $4,500 after completion of the first year; and $5,500 upon completion of two years of study. If the student requires additional funding, more money may be available through the Unsubsidized Stafford Loan program. The student should consult with the Financial Aid Office in this situation.
Repayment begins six months after the student’s last attendance of at least halftime.
Federal Direct PLUS Loans
Federal plus Loans enable parents with good credit histories to borrow for the education expenses of each child who is a dependent undergraduate student enrolled at least half time. plus Loans are available through the Direct Loan Program. Most of the benefits to parent borrowers are identical in the two programs.
The yearly limit on the plus Loan is equal to the student’s cost of attendance minus any other financial aid received. Parents pay a minimal service fee, deducted proportionately each time a loan payment is made. There is no grace period for these loans; interest begins to accumulate at the time the first disbursement is made. Generally, parents must begin repaying both principal and interest 60 days after the date of the final loan disbursement.
Other Types of Financial Aid Awards
