Eureka College provides millions of dollars of financial assistance every year, including Eureka College scholarships and grants, federal and state loans and grants, resources for alternative and private loans and veterans, and work-study awards.
To apply for financial aid, the only form Eureka College requires is the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The FAFSA allows students to apply for grants, loans, and work-study funds. Visit studentaid.gov/fafsa to learn more about this process. You can also view this playlist of videos that describe the process of filling out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). If you have any additional questions while filling out the FAFSA, please feel free to contact our office or the Federal Student Aid Information Center at 1-800-433-3243.
FAFSA forms should be submitted electronically as soon as possible after October 1 for the following academic year. Eureka College’s FAFSA code is: 001678. It is recommended to complete a FAFSA each year in order to maximize your financial aid package.
