CAP — Centenary Affordability Program
According to U.S. Census data, approximately 93 percent of U.S. households earn less than $200,000; nearly 60 percent earn less than $75,000; and the median family income is $63,366. These families have the most financial difficulty sending their children to college.
Centenary College is committed to making high-quality education attainable for all families through CAP, the Centenary Affordability Program, an innovative financing solution utilizing both academic scholarships and federally guaranteed loans. Designed with flexibility in mind, loans and scholarships may also be combined with other sources of funding on a case by case basis to help you maintain a manageable and comprehensive budget for all four years of your Centenary education.
CAP will guarantee a minimum of $5,000 per year, or $20,000 over four years, in Centenary assistance to students from families with Adjusted Gross Incomes under $200,000 for new students entering in the fall of 2010. Students, however, who have already been awarded Centenary-based funds equal to or greater than $5,000 have already met the minimum and would not receive this additional assistance.
