    Financial AssistanceFinancial Aid via TPEG is available for qualied applicants.

    Deadline to submit TPEG applications is listed for each pro-

    gram. Students must submit TPEG application and all required

    documents before or on deadline to ensure the application will

    be processed before the program start date. If the application

    is turned in after the deadline we can not guarantee that your

    application will be processed. All required documentation mustbe completed and turned in before your application will be pro-

    cessed. Not completing the application in its entirety will delay

    the application process. It is the students responsibility to make

    sure all information is accurate and completed. The appli-cation process takes about two weeks.ContinuingEducation will start accepting TPEG applicationson Monday, December 14 for the spring semester.

    TPEG only pays 40% of the course fees and it is the students

    responsibility to pay for the remaining amount. (For example, if

    the program cost is $100, TPEG will only pay $40 and the stu -

    dent must pay the remaining balance of $60.) Students are able

    to pay the remaining balance in full through Installment Plans.The rst installment payment is due at the time of registration.

    Financial Aid for credit classes cannot be used to pay for any

    Continuing Education programs. If a student does not qualify for

    TPEG, he/she is still eligible to pay through Installment Plans.
