If your institution has recently implemented any major financial aid policy, program, or initiative to make your institution more affordable to incoming students such as replacing loans with grants, or waiving costs for families below a certain income level please provide details: The Bobcat Promise program guarantees free tuition and mandatory fees for 15 credit hours per semester (not to exceed one’s demonstrated need) to new entering freshmen with a family adjusted gross income that does not exceed $50,000. Eligible students must apply and be accepted for admission, as well as submit a completed Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), no later than January 15th prior to the upcoming academic year in- order to receive the guaranteed funds. Students may qualify for the program for up to eight continuous long semesters (fall and spring). This program will provide up to the cost of 15 credit hours of tuition and fees each fall and spring semester (an award in excess of $10,000 per academic year).
