State aid
Students who qualify for state programs that are payable to out-of-state colleges should contact their state's educational authority for information on application and payment. SCAD will provide an invoice for a state program that requires one. Funding does not show as a credit on the student's account until payment is received.
Students who qualify for state programs that are not payable at out-of-state colleges should contact the SCAD admission department directly:
