The Financial Aid Office at Greenville College is available to assist students in finding the resources to finance their college education. We accomplish this by determining the student's financial need and then providing the appropriate information regarding the financial aid available. Not all Greenville scholarships are based on financial need, so students are encouraged to apply for financial aid regardless of their financial situation.
