Student Financial Aid for Adult Children of Regular Employees
Adult children, 25 years of age or older, of regular employees and retirees who apply for financial aid and demonstrate need, are eligible for favorable treatment in the packaging of financial aid to meet that need. The grant component of the aid package will be calculated as follows:
- For needy adult children of full-time regular employees with 5 or less years of service the aid package will include an SEU grant of 50% of tuition, not to exceed need.
- For each year of service thereafter, the SEU grant portion of the aid package will increase 10% to a maximum of 75% of tuition at year eight.
To begin the application process for this program, the student must complete and submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and the Tuition Remission for Adult Students form to the Student Financial Services Office (Main Building, Rm. 204). The FAFSA is available at www.fafsa.ed.gov (federal school code #003621) and the adult student remission form is available at http://www.stedwards.edu/stufinan/form.htm. For more information about the application process, contact Student Financial Services at 512-448-8523 or at seu.finaid@stedwards.edu.
Definitions of eligibility, regular employment, children, etc. appear elsewhere in this Handbook.
Note: Full-time regular employees with children under the age of 25 should review the Tuition Remission Benefits policy for eligibility and benefits information.
