Your child had to have attended an
eligible educational institution.
An eligible educational
institution is a school offering higher education beyond high school. It is any
college, university, vocational school, or other post secondary educational
institution eligible to participate
in a student aid program run by the U.S. Department of Education.
This includes most
accredited public, nonprofit and privately-owned–for-profit postsecondary
institutions.
If you aren’t sure if your
school is an eligible educational institution:
• Ask your school if it is
an eligible educational institution, or
• See if your school is on the U.S. Federal Student Aid Code List.
TIP: A small number of schools, not
on this list, may be eligible educational institutions. So, you may need to
ask the school.
