Financial Aid
Don’t let money stand in the way of achieving your goals. As an NIC student, you may be eligible to receive financial
assistance from loans, grants, bursaries, or scholarships. NIC’s Financial Aid Advisors can help you with loan forms and
financial aid applications. They can also work with you to explore all your funding options, from bank and
government student loans to scholarships, study grants, and bursaries.
Speak with a Financial Aid Advisor for options and sources of funding that may be available to you.
