Help! I cannot find where to update my school code?

What does the financial aid process look like?

If you need help setting up or updating your account, we will not be able to finalize your package that day. We can set up a follow up meeting with our financial team to finalize your package. This will take around 20 minutes to complete.

If you already have your account setup, we can see what you qualify for in grants, loans and possible scholarships. You can expect to spend about an hour to complete your financial aid package. Also, if you are a dependent student, we will need a parent or guardian to be part of this meeting as well.

I’ve been told AI will give me a $5,000 scholarship to attend Nossi. Is this true?

What do I need to bring with me?

Great question! We want to ensure you are as prepared as possible. Please bring in your transcript so we can see how your classes will transfer. We cannot move forward without your class transcript.

We also recommend you bring your driver’s license and any artwork you have created. This can range from paintings and pictures you have drawn to pictures and video on your phone. We want to better understand your creative process, and showing us your work is a great way to do that! Have questions about your art and what to bring, please call or email us! 615-514-2787
