MBA Financial Aid Opportunities
At CSUMB, we believe that your future is priceless, so your education should be affordable. We understand that an MBA can open doors to new opportunities, or enable you to create your own. We also know financial aid can be paramount in making an MBA a possibility and are pleased to assist students in applying for available tuition support.
As part of the William D. Ford Direct Loan Program, you could be eligible for a Graduate PLUS loan, which is borrowed directly from the federal government at a fixed interest rate. To confirm your eligibility, you’ll need to complete the Graduate PLUS Loan Application and authorize a credit check, which is run by the U.S. Department of Education.
If you are interested in requesting federal financial aid for your MBA, please file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) using the CSUMB federal school code of 032603.
Loan Repayment and Forgiveness
Loan repayment and forgiveness programs can significantly reduce or eliminate your graduate school debt. Please explore the Federal Student Loan Repayment Program as well as employer-sponsored loan repayment programs that are available to MBA students.
