Financial aid for your Doctorate of Chiropractic studies will be a vastly different journey than that of your undergraduate degree.
As a graduate student you no longer qualify for gift aid such as the Pell Grant and Direct Subsidized Loans, however you may qualify for several institutional and outside scholarships, which are not required to be repaid. Additionally we offer Federal Work Study to students who are interested.
Graduate students are also able to borrow Direct Unsubsidized Loans offered by the U.S. Department of Education at a higher amount to help cover the cost of their education.
Cleveland University-Kansas City has Financial Aid Specialists dedicated to helping you navigate funding specific to our graduate students.
