VIDEO TRANSCRIPT
- So we do have financial aid for both in state and out of state students. The out of state students have it tough because their bill is obviously much higher, but also their aid options are fewer. All of the grants that we get from the state of Massachusetts typically are for Massachusetts residents only and it's a big chunk of our money. So when we're doing out of state awarding, we're really only looking at federal grants that are typically only available to students with very high financial need.

-And then whatever merit-based scholarships they can come up with. In the scholarship listings that we talked about, they're on academic works and through the UMass scholarship database there, is the ability to search for out of state-specific scholarships or for scholarships that are open to both in state and out of state. So students do have options for scholarship application, but typically, not much through the financial aid office, other than what comes through the Fed.
