    Private Education Loans

    Private Student Loans (alternative loans) are now available at Paier College. Students can apply for several different private loans. These loans are not need-based; and are based on creditworthiness. Students who have not obtained a credit-worthy status may have the option to add a credit-worthy cosigner to the application. Payment of these loans and interest rates vary by lending institution. Students must contact the Financial Assistance Office with details about any pending applications.

    Many Paier College students have used EDvestinU for their alternative loan needs: 855.887.5430
    Note: The above lender information is provided for informational purposes only. Students have the right to choose any private student loan institution and are encouraged to compare their options.

    The 1864 Fund

    Paier College offers qualifying students access to Institutional Aid through its 1864 Fund scholarship program. A member of our Financial Assistance team will help determine eligibility. Students who accept all available financial assistance including loans yet still possess a tuition balance may be eligible to apply for the 1864 Fund. These scholarships may be open to new and returning students. The maximum award available is calculated on a case by case basis.

    Scholarships and Local Awards

    Parental employers, civic organizations, and other corporations are important sources of scholarship aid. The Director of Guidance at a local high school can often provide detailed information concerning these sources. In addition, various companies provide awards to Paier students for outstanding achievement. Examples are awards by the Society of Illustrators, The Salmagundi Club of NYC, Hallmark, Southern Connecticut Chapter of the National Kitchen and Bath Design Association, and BT Office Products & Herman Miller Interior Design Scholarship. Announcements of competition for these awards are made during the academic year.
