Paying for college can be confusing, but NHTI makes it simple!
Your education is an investment to last a lifetime. Our Financial Aid Office is committed to working with you to secure eligible funding so you can achieve your goals.
A few things you should know before getting started:
- You have to apply for financial aid each academic year.
- You have to be matriculated (formally accepted) into a financial aid-eligible program (16 credits or more).
- Every matriculated student could be eligible for federal aid.
You should also consider:
CCNSH’s Promise Program helps N.H. students who qualify based on financial need by bridging the gap between grants, scholarships, and the cost of tuition and required comprehensive fees at all 7 of New Hampshire’s community colleges.
Contact Financial Aid at 603-230-4013 to see if you are eligible.
Every semester thousands of dollars in scholarships and grants goes unrewarded simply because no one applies for them! In some cases, all these funds need is one qualified applicant. Do not underestimate the importance and convenience of scholarships and grants in helping to offset your NHTI tuition.
As an NHTI student, you can apply for our extensive list of AwardSpring scholarships with just a single application!
You may be eligible for work-study opportunities at NHTI if you have documented financial need and checked the box on the FAFSA form for work study.
Once you’ve been approved, you can visit any number of on-campus departments always looking for help. These include Student Life, Campus Safety, and Athletics – and they pay $14/hour!

Cohort default rate is the percentage of a school’s borrowers who enter repayment on certain Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) Program or William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan (Direct Loan) Program loans during a particular federal fiscal year (FY), Oct. 1 to Sept. 30, and default or meet other specified conditions prior to the end of the second following fiscal year. The U.S. Department of Education releases official cohort default rates once per year. The NHTI most recent cohort default rate/repayment rate is 2.0%.
