graduate assistantships

the hazelip school of theology also offers a limited number of graduate assistantships. students must be enrolled full-time in the m.div. program for consideration and can expect to work up to 10 hours per week during the fall and spring semesters. students are compensated through additional scholarship aid. assistantships are awarded each fall and last for one year.

as a graduate student, you are still able to file the fafsa—and you should! by filing the fafsa (free application for federal student aid), you may be eligible for a number of student loans. 

federal stafford loan

a borrower must be enrolled or accepted for enrollment for at least six semester hours and must be working toward a degree or certificate. loans must be actively accepted in mylipscomb in order to be applied as an expected payment to the student bill. stafford loans will not pay until the student has completed both entrance counseling and the master promissory note at studentloans.gov. loans will not be credited to accounts until 30 days after classes begin or when a student begins the sixth credit hour, whichever comes last.

graduate plus loan

the graduate plus loan is available to independent graduate students. both loans require credit approval by the department of education, as well as a fafsa submission. apply.

private loans

in addition to the federal loans outlined here, you may consider private loans made by banks and other financial institutions. it is recommended that private loans only be considered in instances where funding is needed in addition to any federal loans, as interest rates may be higher. eligibility for these loans requires a credit check and students are often required to have a cosigner to qualify.
