The average aid amount stands at $18,969 for an annual family income between $30,001 and $48,000. This amount comes to $16,191 for those who fall under the $48,001-$75,000 family income bracket.

In addition to financial grants and scholarship schemes, students can also avail of monetary benefits like student loans to pay for their education. However, student loans attract a certain rate of interest at which the funds are borrowed. While grants and scholarship schemes do not require repayment, student loans should be repaid by the applicants within a given period. At Heritage University, the percentage of candidates who opt to avail of student loans is around 34%.
