If you’re excited to get started on your career in healthcare and have questions on ways you can pay for it, we can help! Applying for financial aid* is the first step to paying for school.
If you have any questions, please contact the Financial Aid department at Pittsburgh Career Institute at 412-281-2600.
*Financial aid is available to those who qualify.
Students who would like to apply for federal aid (and state aid, if applicable) must apply for an FSA ID and complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®) each year.
To be able to complete your FAFSA® application you’ll need:
The FAFSA® is processed through the Department of Education and all information is confidential. Students may have to request estimates prior to enrollment but must be accepted before financial aid is packaged and processed.
