Bloomfield College recognizes that many families need assistance in meeting the cost of a college education. While the College expects that students and their parents will contribute to the fullest extent of their ability from their income and assets, the financial aid programs administered by Bloomfield College can provide financial assistance to students who would be unable to attend college without it. Students are encouraged to seek advice and assistance from the Financial Aid Office whose staff can provide detailed information regarding federal, state and college financial aid programs.
The Financial Aid Office, located in Knox Hall can be reached at (973) 748-9000, Ext. 212 or 383.
The following are steps in applying for scholarships and financial aid:
- File a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Mail it to the Federal Student Aid Programs (address is indicated on the form). or apply on-line at www.FAFSA.ED.GOV
- Submit verification of income for the year 2007. Verification of income may be a copy of the parents’ and the student’s IRS 1040 (Federal Income Tax Return) and/or an official statement from any agency providing the family’s non-taxable income or benefits (such as: welfare, unemployment, Veteran’s or Social Security Benefits, etc.).
- Apply for admission to Bloomfield College. The final decision regarding your eligibility for financial aid will be made after you are accepted for admission and all required financial aid applications and documentation are on file.
