An investment in your future

Tuition at any college is not what it may seem at first glance. That’s the sticker price—and it can be a bit jarring! But as you look deeper into the cost of a college education, you’ll soon discover that the actual price equals the “sticker price” MINUS a package of financial assistance—consisting of ODP waiver funds, vocational rehabilitation funds, grants, and scholarships. This makes an inclusive college education much more affordable than you originally may have thought it would be!

To pay for tuition plus other expenses YOU CAN USE:

• Medicaid Waiver Funds
• OVR Funds
• DREAM Scholarship
• Other scholarships
• Grants
