Please use this form to report any non-institutional/private scholarships (NISC) or non-institutional loans (NILN) you will be receiving.
I
nclude all scholarships from your high school, church, private businesses, clubs, or private individuals. (
Do NOT list gifts from family members or friends.
Do NOT list scholarships that are from any state, Federal, or Messiah University sources such as PA State Grant, Federal PELL Grant, Provost Scholarship, Messiah University Scholarship, etc.)
Include interest-free or low-interest loans you will be receiving from private organizations, marked clearly on this form as "loans."
If we know about these scholarships or loans by July, your financial aid award and student bill will be more accurate, and we won't need to revise your financial aid award later in the year. This gives you a better idea of the final amounts of your financial aid (especially loans) earlier in the year.
- Federal regulations require schools to include these scholarships and loans as part of your Financial Aid package, even if the check will be coming directly to you.
- You must complete this form ANNUALLY if you expect to receive any non-institutional or private scholarships or loans for the upcoming academic year.
