FINANCIAL AID
Choosing to further your education is an important step in achieving your future career goals. Once you have made the decision
to pursue a career focused course of study, your next step is to decide how you will pay for your education.
American Trade School participates in the Federal Pell Grant and the Federal Student Loan programs.
To be considered for federal student aid, a student must complete and submit a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). It
collects financial and other information used to calculate the expected family contribution (EFC) and to determine a student’s
eligibility through computer matches with other agencies. A FAFSA can be completed at American Trade School with a financial aid
administrator or online at: www.fafsa.ed.gov.
ELIGIBILITY
Eligibility for federal student aid is based on financial need and on several other factors. The financial aid administrator at
American Trade School will determine your eligibility based on the result of your FAFSA.
To receive aid from the federal student aid programs, a student must:
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 non-federal sources might be added.

FEDERAL STUDENT LOANS
Will you need a loan to attend American Trade School? If so, you may consider federal student loans. Federal loans are borrowed
funds that you must repay with interest. A federal student loan allows students and their parents to borrow money to help pay for
college through loan programs supported by the federal government. They have low interest rates and offer flexible repayment
terms, benefits, and options.
Beginning July 1, 2010, all new Stafford and PLUS loans will be made under the William D. Ford Program Federal Direct Loan
Program (Direct Loan programs). In the Direct Loan, the U.S. Government is the lender, and loan funds are provided to students
through the school.
