Frequently Asked Questions
Financial Aid
When are my payments due?
Incoming students are required to pay their $500 enrollment deposit by May 1. Binding Enrollment students have 10 days after being admitted to pay their enrollment deposit. This is a one-time payment and will be credited toward your first semester’s bill. Term Bill payments are due at the beginning of each semester:
First Semester: June 30
Second Semester: November 30
Students will have the option to pay each term bill in three installments. (a 1.5% fee applies to this option.)
First Semester: June 30
Second Semester: November 30
Students will have the option to pay each term bill in three installments. (a 1.5% fee applies to this option.)
Will I receive the same amount of financial aid every year?
Award amounts may vary from year to year, based on changes in a family's financial circumstances and Minerva's cost of attendance. If there are no major changes to a family’s financial situation from year to year, students can expect to receive a similar level of aid throughout their time at Minerva.
What are the terms of the loan?
Loans are structured so that students make small monthly payments to cover the loan interest while in school, begin repayment of the loan principal several months after graduation, and be repaid in full within four years of graduation. Loans —which have an interest rate of 6.5%* — are deliberately structured to greatly minimize your financial burden after graduation.
*The exact interest rate is subject to change and will be determined at the time you complete your loan application.

What can I do if I am not happy with my financial aid package?
Financial aid packages are non-negotiable. The only way to appeal your financial aid is to provide new information about your family's financial profile. Please email updated information, along with an explanation as to how your circumstances changed, to financialaid@minerva.edu.
What are costs that will not be covered in my financial aid package?
The costs for required technology, travel, and health insurance are not paid directly to Minerva. These costs are included on our website in the estimated annual cost of attendance. There is also a $1,000 security deposit that is fully refundable upon graduation provided that no damage is done to a residence hall caused by students, no excess cleaning costs in housing, no unpaid invoices are left at the end of each year, and no other expenses were incurred on behalf of a student by Minerva.
If my aid award includes a work-study position, how many hours per week will I work?
Students who are awarded a Minerva work-study position are eligible to work up to 7.5 hours a week during the term when classes are in session. For some positions, the limit is 10 hours a week. Although these are the upper limits, many students choose to work fewer hours; individual schedules are determined by each student with their direct supervisor. Students are paid hourly for the time that they work.
If I do not apply for aid as a first-year student, can I request aid after my first year?
Yes. Students must apply for financial aid for each year that they attend Minerva. Returning students must complete all requirements by the published deadline.
Do I have to maintain a minimum GPA to remain eligible for financial aid?
There is no minimum GPA requirement to remain on financial aid, however, students must continue to maintain satisfactory academic progress as detailed in the Student Handbook.
Do I need to reapply for financial aid each year?
Yes. Students must submit a new financial aid application to Minerva each year to provide the most up-to-date financial information. The application is evaluated according to the same need-based guidelines that were in effect when the student was admitted.
