Judson strives to help any eligible, admitted student pay for her college education. Students who doubt their ability to pay for an education at Judson are encouraged to apply for financial aid. All Alabama residents are encouraged to apply for the Alabama Student Grant. Likewise, entering freshmen who are members of churches belonging to the Alabama Baptist Convention, should apply for the A. Earl Potts Scholarship through their home churches.

The College may offer an eligible student an award package to include more than one type of financial assistance; however, a student's total Judson-funded or controlled scholarships/grants will not exceed the cost of education.

Judson College reserves the right to adjust a student's financial aid award in the event that other funds become available which may exceed the student's financial need if she is receiving federal financial assistance, or which may exceed the cost of education at the College. The College also reserves the right to adjust or modify the source and amount of institutional scholarships to named scholarships as funding becomes available.

How to Apply for Financial Aid

Applications for financial aid should be completed and filed before March 1 each year with the Judson College Office of Financial Aid. A letter will be sent to the student stating the amount awarded.

Academic Progress Requirements for Financial Aid

*The Alabama Student Grant is renewable annually as long as the total hours attempted does not exceed by more than twenty-five (25%) the number of hours required for the individual student's course of study or until such time as the student receives a baccalaureate degree.
