Financial Aid and Scholarship Application Process
Students applying for federal financial aid must:
Be admitted to CSI with a high school diploma or its equivalent and be enrolled in an eligible degree-seeking degree or certificate program.
Fill out the FAFSA application online at studentaid.gov, making sure to enter CSI’s school code – 001619.
Check for other required documents in Net Partner at www.netpartner.csi.edu. Students use this portal to upload requested documents, track their progress in the financial aid application process and accept/reduce/decline their awards. Important: the CSI Financial Aid and Scholarship Office no longer mails hard copy letters or notifications. Students are expected to log in to Net Partner and check their email often.
Meet all other eligibility requirements (listed at https://www.csi.edu/financial-aid/get-financial-aid/faq.aspx).
Students applying for a scholarship at CSI must:
Be admitted to CSI at time of application.
Have high school diploma or its equivalent at time of disbursement.
Fill out the scholarship application located under the Finances tab at https://my.csi.edu.
Eligibility requirements are available at http://scholarships.csi.edu/.
Applications for FAFSA are considered on a financial need basis; scholarships in general are based on merit.
Early FAFSA applications (submitted between October 1st and March 1st) receive priority consideration. Students are encouraged to apply early and submit all required documentation promptly.
The scholarship priority date for the 2022-2023 school year is March 1st. However, students can still apply after this date to be considered for second round awarding.
