Federal Financial Aid
To qualify for Federal Financial Aid you must first complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). This may be obtained through our Financial Aid Offices. Eligibility is determined based on the financial need of the student and in some cases the student’s family. A Financial Aid Specialist will review each student’s total Financial Aid award eligibility. Students are not required to accept all forms of financial aid offered. The following are some of the Federal Financial Aid programs that Javelin offers. The Financial Aid Department recognizes that each student’s situation is unique; therefore, each application is kept confidential and is analyzed and considered on an individual basis.
Federal Pell Grant
A Federal Pell Grant is a grant that the student does not pay back. These
awards are to help students pay for their education. The Pell Grant Program
is the largest Federal student aid program. These grants provide a “foundation” of
financial aid, to which aid from other Federal and non-Federal sources
may be added.
Stafford Loans
Loans are sources of financial aid that must be repaid. Government-sponsored
educational loans are preferable if you decide to borrow to pay for your
education. They are better than traditional consumer loans because they
usually offer lower interest rates and extended repayment terms, do not
require collateral, and help students and parents with the costs of education.
Workforce Investment Act (WIA)
The federal Workforce Investment Act (WIA) program makes tuition assistance available at the state and county level for individuals who meet certain criteria. If you have been downsized or have been unemployed for an extended amount of time, you might qualify for free training at Javelin under the WIA program. Javelin Tech is an approved vendor for the City of Atlanta and for most local metro-Atlanta and surrounding counties including Fulton, Dekalb, Cobb, Cherokee, Clayton, Douglas, Fayette, Gwinnett, Henry, Rockdale, Bartow, Catoosa, Chattooga, Dade, Polk, Fannin, Floyd, Gilmer, Gordon, Haralson, Murray, Paulding, Pickens, Walker and Whitfield. If you qualify for benefits under this program, you might qualify for tuition assistance and/or free training at Javelin.
Veteran’s Administration
Javelin Tech is approved by the Veteran's Administration to provide training for veterans and their families who wish to use their G.I. Bill or other veteran's training benefits to pay for their training. If you are a veteran, disabled veteran or if you are on active duty or in active reserve status, you might qualify for training funds.
