TECHNICAL AND BUSINESS COLLEGE - FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE

Technical Business College MTI Stockton, CA Students enrolling in school are informed that the Technical Business Career College is eligible for federal Title IV Federal financial assistance and they are encouraged to apply for federal funds to determine if they are eligible to receive this assistance. A full-time financial aid office is maintained where all forms are available to apply for the Federal Pell Grant and/or Federal Direct Loan Program.

The Federal Pell Grant is a gift of aid from the Federal government to eligible students based on financial need. Need is determined on the basis of a formula developed by the United States Department of Education and reviewed by Congress annually.

The college expressly provides student loans through the Federal Direct Loan Program as of July 2010. Federal Direct Loan Program makes available Federal Subsidized Direct Loans, Federal Unsubsidized Direct Loans and Federal PLUS (parental) Direct Loans. These Loans are available to eligible students enrolled on at least a half-time basis in an eligible participating institution.

A student applying for Federal Financial Aid is required to provide supporting documentation for verification of information given to the Financial Aid Officer. Proper documentation can include tax returns and W-2 forms. A complete list of documents needed for verification can be obtained from the Financial Aid Officer.

If a student supplies inaccurate information on any application and declines to correct this information after being advised by the Financial Aid Officer, the school is required to refer this case to the United States Department of Education for resolution. No financial aid will be disbursed to the student unless the school is requested to do so by this Federal agency.

MTI STOCKTON BUSINESS CAREER COLLEGE - ESTIMATION OF FINANCIAL AID

A tool is included right here on-line allowing students applying for colleges to compare costs at various campuses. These "Net Price Calculators" determine the sticker price, the amount paid by a student not receiving any financial aid minus grants the student could expect based on family finances and, in some cases, academic performance. It is not a perfect tool. Colleges can vary in what they call the calculators - names include financial aid estimator, student aid calculator and net price calculator. And that leads to another inconsistency with the calculators: How much information they ask of users. There will be a variety, some are elaborate asking more than 40 questions to pretty basic about 10 or less. At MTI Business College we have kept our "Net Price Calculator" simple, quick, and easy at the basic level. Click Below

Do understand the numbers on your formal financial aid offer could be vastly different if you put erroneous information in the calculator. As long as students understand it's totally based on the accuracy of the information. Do not let the results be your final determining factor of whether you enroll at any college. Financial Aid Advisors at MTI Business College with over ten years experience are just a phone call or appointment away at accurately filling out an Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). We are always here to answer all of your questions in order to make the most informed and intelligent decision at how monies will be allocated paying for the program you decide to enroll in.

STUDENT LOAN DEFAULT PREVENTION

Students who attend school with the assistance of past Federal Family Education Loans, before July 2010, or the present Federal Direct Loans must realize the seriousness of the repayment obligation.These loans must be repaid. If a student obtains a loan to pay for an educational program, the student will have the responsibility to repay the full amount of the loan plus interest, less the amount of any refund, and that, if the student has received federal student financial aid funds, the student is entitled to a refund of the moneys not paid from federal student financial aid progam funds.

The College has established a service whereby the Student Loan Assistant presents in a small group atmosphere an Entrance Orientation after starting school and an Exit Orientation at the end of their program, both containing pertinent up-to-date information. This assists current students and graduates in the repayment process. Deferment, forbearance or consolidation of payments is possible under various conditions. The purpose of this important staff person is to assist even those students no longer in the training process either through graduating or leaving their program with outstanding balances.

RETENTION OF STUDENT RECORDS

Student's currently and formally enrolled admissions, academic, and financial records (physical and electronic) are securely maintained and protected against damage or loss (i.e. fire, water, theft, tampering, etc.) by storing them in fire proof file cabinets at the front of the building. They are locked after hours and weekends. Since 1987 Standards of Accreditation require permanent records which include financial record (pay card), appraisal, transcripts and initial placement information transferred onto CD-ROM media to be stored indefinitely at the college.
