Program Information

Financial Aid Services

The University of La Verne has financial aid to assist students in meeting the cost of graduate education. All students may apply. Students must be fully admitted to a degree or certificate program at ULV before they can receive financial aid. Most awards are based upon the computed financial need of the student as determined by the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) filed with the appropriate federal processing contractor.

ULV takes both academic achievement and financial need into account in awarding financial aid. A financial aid package may combine a balance of gift aid (grants and scholarships) and self help (loans and employment). No financial aid award (including loans) can exceed the student's total cost of education.

The types of assistance for most doctoral students consist of two federally funded loans. They are the Federal Subsidized Stafford loan and Federal Unsubsidized Stafford loan.

Payment Options

To enable full time doctoral students to more efficiently plan to meet their tuition obligations, the University of La Verne has instituted two tuition payment options:

Semester Plan, Option I - Pay in full for the year or pay full prevailing tuition at beginning of each semester.

Level Payment Plan, Option II - Pay for each year's prevailing tuition over a 6-month basis, for Spring and/or for Fall. A nominal service charge of $75.00 will be added.
