Lakeland University (LU), Plymouth, Wisconsin, is committed to providing exceptional value at a manageable cost. Each student comes to college with a different set of financial circumstances. We consider every possible funding source to address your unique situation and fill in any gaps with a range of grants, loans, scholarships, and other financial aid solutions.

The main requirement for financial aid is to fill the FAFSA form using the Lakeland University FAFSA code 003854. 

Lakeland University has provided aid to 64% of the students and the total aid amount received by the student is $12,988,161.

Types of Financial aid provided by the university are:

  •  Federal Pell Grant: A Federal Pell Grant, unlike a loan, does not have to be repaid. Pell Grants are awarded usually only to undergraduate students who have not earned a bachelor's or a professional degree. Pell Grants are considered a foundation of federal financial aid, to which aid from other federal and nonfederal sources might be added.

  • Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant: The Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant is designed to provide additional assistance to students. To be eligible, a student must complete the FAFSA, have the lowest EFC possible and be enrolled full time. Funding for the SEOG grant is limited, so apply as soon as possible.

  • Loans

    • Subsidized: for students with demonstrated financial need, as determined by federal regulations. No interest is charged while a student is in school at least half-time, and during deferment periods.

    • Unsubsidized: not based on financial need; interest is charged during all periods, even during the time a student is in school and during grace and deferment periods.

    • PLUS: unsubsidized loans for the parents of dependent students.  PLUS loans help pay for education expenses up to the cost of attendance minus all other financial assistance. Interest is charged during all periods.

  • Federal Work-Study: Federal Work-Study provides part-time jobs for undergraduate and graduate students with financial need, allowing them to earn money to help pay education expenses. The program encourages community service work and work related to the student’s course of study.

  • State Aid includes Hearing and Visually Handicapped Student Grant, Indian Student Assistance Grant, Minority Undergraduate Retention Grant, Talent Incentive Program Grant, and Wisconsin Grant.

  • Institutional Aid includes Col. Yong Chue Yang Scholarship, Kenneth Ertman Memorial Book Scholarship, Lakeland University Service and Leadership Scholarships, and Honors Program Scholarship.
