| Financial Assistance
The goal of The New Teachers College is to provide information, guidance and support to students to help them meet the financial obligations of College tuition and expenses, while meeting their own personal financial needs.
The College has two categories of scholarship awards and affiliations with lending institutions in the greater Cleveland area for access to educational loans. Students must be enrolled in a degree seeking program to receive a scholarship and/or to apply for an educational loan. Scholarships are applied to tuition only, and students should expect to provide additional funds for the tuition balance, fees, medical insurance, academic, and living expenses.
Scholarship for Students from Underrepresented Populations
This scholarship is limited to those who are seeking initial teacher licensure. To encourage a wide range of diversity among the teachers of our children, the College offers two incentive scholarships in this category, up to $3,000 each, annually. Applicants would be students who typify an underrepresented population in the teaching force. Scholarship application forms are sent to all students once admitted into the degree program.

Scholarship for Students with a Commitment to Teach in Urban Settings
This scholarship is limited to those who are seeking initial teacher licensure. To encourage our best trained teachers to work with some of our most disadvantaged children, the College offers two incentive scholarships in this category, up to $3,000 each, annually. Applicants would be students who have a strong interest in and commitment to teaching in urban settings, whether public, charter, private or parochial. Scholarship application forms are sent to all students once admitted into the degree program.
Educational Loans The New Teachers College has established relationships with several banking institutions in the greater Cleveland area that provide educational loans. These banking institutions provide these loans at low interest rates to credit-worthy borrowers. In general, you may borrow funds equal to the cost of education minus any financial assistance offered through the College. The credit-worthy borrower does NOT need to be the student. a parent or significant other can borrow for the student. |

The following table indicates how the loan may be applied for and who the contact person is for each banking institution.
A paper application can be requested for those who prefer to not use the Internet. Many may be applied for over the
Internet and all have 800 numbers for your use.
Because a credit check is involved, it is wise to apply for these loans as soon as possible.
We suggest you apply to more than one creditor.
