Financing Your Studies

 

To help you achieve your goals,

Mt. Nittany offers several payment options for financing your education.

 

•     Option One - pay tuition in full in a single payment one month prior to the start date of a program.

     Option Two - pay tuition plus a 6% service charge in two equal payments.  The first payment is due one month prior to your program’s start date; the second payment is due half way through your program.

     Option Three for those who qualify, Mt. Nittany Institute accepts veteran’s benefits and Pennsylvania OVR funding.

•     Option Four -  SLM Corporation, a Sallie Mae Company educational loan, with multiple low payments.  You may qualify for this affordable student loan to fund your Mt. Nittany education.  This career-training loan is designed to help you cover many of the costs of your education, including these commonly covered items: tuition, books, classroom materials, and housing and transportation.  Those with little or blemished credit are encouraged to engage a co-borrower to obtain a loan.

 

How to apply? We’ll provide you with a loan application form with your program application.  Matt Soccio, the Institute’s Accounting Coordinator, is available to discuss your financial needs and assist you with processing a loan application.  Matt can be reached at:  (814) 238-1121 Monday - Friday 9:00am - 4:30pm or send an e-mail accounting@mtnittanyinstitute.com
