Numerous states offer financial aid programs. Generally, you may apply for a state scholarship on the same FAFSA that you submit to apply for other aid, although some states require that a separate application form be filed. It is recommended that you contact your State Financial Aid Authority for particulars. Rhode Island residents should contact the Rhode Island Higher Education Assistance Authority, 560 Jefferson Blvd., Warwick, RI (401) 736-1100.

Recipients of state scholarship awards will receive notification directly form their State Authority. Your anticipated award will appear on the Financial Aid Award Notification only after your scholarship agency notifies this office of their offer.
