You will receive a written decision once your completed file has been reviewed. (Final action and award notification is not made for prospective students until after the student is accepted for admission to Gordon-Conwell.) The financial aid offer consists of Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loan aid up to the cost of attendance (including tuition, fees, and estimated expenses for books and supplies), which is partially determined by the number of courses in which the student enrolls.
The Financial Aid Office will email award offers to eligible students. Most students received an award offer beginning mid-May for the following fall semester. Students who submit applications after the priority deadline will received an award offer on a rolling basis.
When you receive a Financial Aid Offer, you need to review the information, decide what you would like to do, and return the Loan Acceptance Statement (page four of the package) to the Financial Aid Office.
You have the choice to accept or decline any award offer. You also have the choice to accept a smaller loan amount than what was offered.
If you feel that the financial aid decision does not accurately reflect your need, you may request a review. Please note that the seminary must adhere to all federal regulations and GCTS policies when determining financial aid.
Your request must be made in writing and clearly state your reasons for the appeal. An appeal does not guarantee additional assistance and appeals are not reviewed until after the semester begins. Therefore, your education plans should be made on the basis of the original decision.
Students are primarily responsible for financing their cost of attendance at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. Students seeking financial assistance must make every reasonable effort to adjust their lifestyles and spending to minimize their expenses while attending seminary. In addition, the student must consider spending a portion of savings and assets, pursuing support from family, home congregations, or denominations, and be willing to consider part-time employment to cover their cost of attendance.
