To make your education at Strayer University more affordable, our Business Office can help you identify, understand and qualify for a variety of financing and financial aid options. Among these options are the following:

  • Federal Grants and Loans. Federal financial aid is available for those who qualify. Federal grants do not have to be repaid and Federal loans are available that offer funds at a reduced interest rate or with deferred payment.
  • The Bailey Family Foundation Scholarship. The Bailey Family Foundation, founded in 1996 by Strayer University Past President Ron K. Bailey, offers scholarship programs to high school seniors as well as current college students with demonstrated scholastic achievement and financial need. A limited number of these scholarships are reserved for Strayer University students. To qualify, a current student must be in good standing with the University and a new student must be accepted into one of Strayer University’s programs. Scholarship applications and additional information are available on the Bailey Family Foundation Web site.
  • Active-Duty Military Scholarship. Strayer University’s military scholarship supplements the military’s tuition assistance program and other educational resources to offer 100% tuition coverage for undergraduate tuition, and a majority of graduate tuition. Learn more about our military scholarships by clicking here.
  • Veterans Educational Benefits. Some of the programs offered by Strayer University are approved for the enrollment of persons eligible to receive VA Educational Benefits. Strayer University remains in contact with the Department of Veterans Affairs so that we can advise you about current requirements and regulations. Contact the Veteran's Certifying Official at your local campus for more information or learn more about our Veterans Benefits by clicking here.
  • Employer Tuition Assistance. Many companies provide tuition benefits to their employees in the form of either direct payment to the school or reimbursing tuition expenses directly to the employee/student. Please check with your company’s Human Resources or Training and Education department for more information about the education benefits available to you.
  • Private Loans. Low cost, private loans are available to undergraduate and graduate students. These loans can also fill the financial gap not covered by federal student aid programs.  Apply for a Chase Select Loan by clicking here, a SallieMae Signature Loan by clicking here or a Wachovia Education Loan by clicking here.
