| A new aid policy will take affect with aid awards for 2008-09. Currently, for students eligible for Colby aid, the financial aid package typically includes loan (Perkins Loan in most cases) work study and grant to meet the calculated financial need. Next year, the loan component of the package will be replaced with Colby Grant resulting in less overall debt. Students and parents may choose to borrow to reduce the calculated family as before. SFS will continue to process federal student loans for those eligible students opting to borrow. more details |
