There is a lot of unnecessary confusion about college financial aid. In fact, many people have serious misconceptions about what financial aid is. So, let’s clear up some misconceptions by defining financial aid and the most important financial aid terms.
Financial aid comes in various forms; scholarships, grants (essentially the same as scholarships), work study funds, tuition waivers, fellowships, teaching assistantships (the last two for graduate students), and loans. And, financial aid can come to students from government, private, and college/university sources.
