Financial aid is the funding that can help you bridge the gap between the cost of attending DigiPen and your own financial means. While understanding the different types of funding and regulations surrounding college finance may seem daunting at first, DigiPen’s Office of Financial Aid is here to help guide you and your family through the process. We have assembled a comprehensive collection of resources that cover everything from basic terms and definitions to more specific forms of financial aid based on academic merit or veteran status.

Here, you will find a list of many of these resources, though many find our all-in-one Financial Aid Guide to be a great place to start, as well. Regardless of where you are in the process, our staff is always happy to answer questions and provide information on how best to fund your education. Feel free to contact us through any of the methods at the bottom of this page.
