Which option is right for me?
The four main types of aid include Federal Student Loans, Grants, Scholarships, and Work Study. Federal Student Loans require repayment. Federal and Mississippi-based Grants are awarded on a needs-basis and do not need to be paid back. Scholarships awards are based on performance and major. Work Study is also a great way to help pay for your education while working part-time on campus.

Student Loans

Both federal and private student loans are borrowed funds that you must repay with interest, but federal student loans usually offer lower interest rates and have more flexible repayment terms and options than private student loans.
