Learn more about Webster's eligible academic programs (PDF opens in new tab). More details about the application process are available on the DHEWD webpage (opens in new tab).

The Federal Pell Grant (opens in new tab) is an award for undergraduates only with no prior bachelors or professional degree. Eligibility is primarily based on your Expected Family Contribution (EFC) but is also affected by your enrollment status. A minimum of 12 credit hours each semester is required to receive full eligibility, with prorated awards going to students with fewer than 12 credit hours.

Room and Board Grant assistance is a limited University-funded program which provides assistance to undergraduate students pursuing a first bachelor's degree, who are enrolled for 13 or more credit hours per semester and living in campus housing. This aid program is available to St. Louis campus students only and awards vary depending upon the level of a student's unmet need.

This program began with eligible new students in Fall 2016 who planned to live on campus. If a student decides to not live on campus or moves out of campus, eligibility for this grant ends. It is the responsibility of the student to inform the Financial Aid Office if they are not living in campus housing so this assistance can be removed. The Financial Aid Office will remove the grant once it is discovered the student is not living in campus housing.

TEACH (opens in new tab) grants may be available for either undergraduate or graduate students that intend to teach specific subjects at qualified schools upon graduation.

• Value: Students may receive up to $4,000 per academic year in exchange for an agreement to teach in specific schools and subject areas after graduation. It is important to note that if a student should fail to fulfill the requirements of the Agreement To Serve (ATS), the TEACH grant will be converted to an unsubsidized loan.

Webster University Grant assistance is a University-funded program which provides assistance to undergraduate students pursuing a first bachelor's degree and who are enrolled for 13 or more credit hours per semester. This aid program is available to St. Louis campus students only and is intended to augment another gift aid that the student may or may not be receiving. Awards vary depending upon the level of a student's unmet need.

Direct Subsidized Loans (opens in new tab) are need-based loans and are available to eligible undergraduate students. Repayment of principal is postponed while the student is in school and during a six-month grace period after the student leaves school or drops below half time status. These loans are made by a lender, such as a bank, credit union or savings and loan association; are insured by a state or nonprofit guarantee agency; and are reinsured by the federal government.

The federal government pays (subsidizes) interest on the borrower's behalf:

• While student is in school.
• While student is in their grace period.
• During authorized periods of deferment of repayment.

Direct Unsubsidized Loans (opens in new tab) are non-need-based loans and are available to eligible undergraduate and graduate students. Repayment of principal is postponed while the student is in school and during a six-month grace period after the student leaves school or drops below half time status. The interest on Unsubsidized Direct Loans while the student is in school however is the borrower's responsibility to repay. These loans are made by a lender, such as a bank, credit union or savings and loan association; are insured by a state or nonprofit guarantee agency; and are reinsured by the federal government. Additionally, these loans:

• are available to students who do not qualify, in whole or in part, for Subsidized Stafford Loans;
• have terms that are the same as the terms for subsidized loans, except that the federal government DOES NOT pay any interest on the borrower's behalf;
• may either accrue interest while the student is in school and then be added to the loan balance, or the borrower may begin making interest payments after the first loan check is disbursed;
• accrue interest during the borrower's grace period and during authorized periods of deferment of repayment.

Parent PLUS (opens in new tab) (Parent Loans for Undergraduate Students) Loans enable parents to borrow up to the student's cost of attendance minus other aid for each dependent student who is enrolled at least half-time.

• PLUS loans do NOT require that the student have demonstrated financial need. However, the combination of PLUS loans and any other aid may not exceed the cost of education for the term of the loan.

Graduate PLUS Loans (opens in new tab) allow graduate students to borrow funds up to the student's cost of attendance.

Private Education Loans are not state, federal, or institutional aid programs. Instead they are loan programs specifically tailored for educational expenses by private lenders. Since these programs are created by the lenders themselves, there are often different terms and conditions for receiving them.

Interest rates, fees, and maximum loan amounts are among the many factors that may vary from lender to lender. We strongly encourage students and parents to borrow first from the Federal Loan Programs. With the use of a survey process, we developed a recommended lender list, allowing our students and parents to compare Private Alternative Education Loan Lenders.
