What aid is available?

State Government
1. Monetary Award Program (MAP)
  The Monetary Award Program makes awards to students on the basis of financial need. Applicants must be Illinois residents attending Illinois schools. The awards apply to tuition only, and the funds are paid to the college on the student's behalf. Both full and partial awards are made, depending on need. Application for the MAP is automatically made when completing the FAFSA form by the applicable deadline.
2. Silas Purnell Illinois Incentive for Access (IIA) Grant
  The Silas Purnell Illinois Incentive for Access program offers a one-time grant to first-year students who are Illinois residents with limited ability to pay for college. This grant was established by the Illinois Student Assistance Commission (ISAC) to improve access to higher education.
