Budget Items
In order for the Financial Aid and Scholarship Office to determine your financial need, we must first establish what we feel your costs are associated with attending Normandale for an academic year.
All budget items shown are for nine months and attending full time (12+ credits per term). Students attending less than full-time are eligible for financial aid; however, budget, family contributions and maximum awards may be adjusted proportionately for less than full-time attendance.
