 The
Student Financial Assistance Program’s mission supports
the College’s mission of putting the needs of students
at the forefront of our decision making process. In accomplishing
this mission, the Financial Aid and Scholarship Program
personnel will assist students in securing the funds necessary
to pursue their educational goals at Miami Dade College.
We are committed to providing quality service, reliable
consumer information and access to information on a large
variety of higher education funding sources. In addition,
we are committed to working with the community by providing
financial aid workshops, information, and consultation
to students, parents, high school counselors, and the general
public. |
