Helpful Terms/Financial Aid Understanding Your Financial Aid To better understand your financial aid award, please review the following items. Institutional Grants/Scholarships: Institutional Grants and Scholarships are awarded by Lindsey Wilson College. For more information, see www.lindsey.edu/financialaid. Federal Grants: This federally funded grant (Pell Grant) is awarded on the basis of financial need. This grant is the foundation upon which all other aid is based. Kentucky State Grants: These grants, funded by the Commonwealth of Kentucky, are awarded according to need to Kentucky residents attending Kentucky colleges and is subject to availability of funds. The grants are available as a Kentucky Tuition Grant (KTG) or College Access Program Grant (CAP). KEES Scholarship: KEES scholarships are estimated based on your current award prior to your high school graduation and final grades. If your KEES scholarship changes after your final high school grades are re- ported, your institutional aid will be adjusted accordingly to give you the same bottom line. KHEAA requires students to maintain a minimum 2.5 cumulative GPA while in college to remain eligible for the KEES Scholar- ship each year. Federal Student Work Study: Students work on campus approximately 11 hours a week to earn money for tuition, room and board expenses. There is a 6% tax that will be deducted from the wages earned. For example, a $2,500 workstudy award will result in approximately $150 being withheld for taxes. Earnings are applied directly to student’s account. Federal Direct Subsidized Loan: This need-based program enables students to borrow an educational loan from the Department of Education. The loan is insured by the federal government, and the federal government pays the interest while the borrower is enrolled in school at least half-time, during a grace period, and during authorized periods of deferment. Interest will begin to accrue from the beginning of the repayment period (six months after a student graduates or leaves school). The interest rate is variable, with a threshold of 8.25%. All students that accept the Federal Direct Subsidized Loan must complete the online Entrance Counseling and Master Promissory Note (MPN) at www.studentloans.gov This loan will have an origination fee (1.059%) which will be deducted from the total amount of the loan. Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loan: This is a non-need-based educational loan from the Department of Education. The student is responsible for the interest during in-school and deferment periods. Six months after the student graduates or leaves school, payments on the principal and interest begin. The interest rate is variable, with a threshold of 8.25%. Quarterly interest payments can be made while the students are in school, or students may allow interest to accrue. All students that accept the Federal Direct Subsidized Loan must complete the online Entrance Counseling and Master Promissory Note (MPN) at www.studentloans.gov This loan will have an origination fee (1.059%) which will be deducted from the total amount of the loan. 3 #LWCisFamily • 1-800-264-0138 • admissions@lindsey.edu

Our trained student writing consultants work with writers on a one-to-one basis, discussing writing at any point in the process, from generating ideas to drafting, revising to polishing. We work with each writer, considering his or her long-term goals. Ideally, writers gradually improve with every consultation as they examine their writing processes, habits and choices.

For more information, visit our website at www.lindsey.edu/writingcenter Class Accommodations Lindsey Wilson College accepts students with disabilities and provides reasonable accommodation that will fa- cilitate success. Depending on the nature of the disability, some students may need to take a lighter course load and may need more than four years to graduate. Immediately after acceptance, students must identify and document the nature of their disabilities with Mr. Ben Martin (270-384-7479), the Learning & Physical Dis- abilities Coordinator. It is the responsibility of the student to provide the Learning & Physical Disabilities Coor- dinator with appropriate materials documenting the learning disability. Learning disabilities are typically documented by a recent high school Individualized Education Program (IEP) and results from testing con- ducted by a psychologist, psychiatrist or a qualified, licensed person. The College does not provide assess- ment services for students who may be learning disabled. Although Lindsey Wilson provides limited personal counseling for all students, the College does not have structured programs available for students with emo- tional or behavioral disabilities.
