In breaking down the eligibility category, there are need-based and non-need-based funds. Examples of need-based funds in clude: the Basic Educational Opport unity Grant (BEOG); the Supplemental Educational Opport unity Grant (SEOG); the Kreiger Loan; the National Direct Student Loan (NDSL); the Student Worker Program and Salem Scholarship monies. Examples of non need-based funds in clude; the North Carolina Legislative Tuition Grant; the Guaranteed Student Loan (GSL); and the Paid Student Worker Program. To further explain available financial aid programs, several examples may be helpful in illustrating how a program com bines categories previously described. If a student demonstrates sufficient financial need, the BEOG will be awarded. BEOG is a grant and the aid’s source is the federal government. If a student receives a Kreiger Loan (need- based) in her financial aid package, the aid’s type is a loan and the aid’s source is Salem. However, the Kreiger Loan is special in that upon graduation from Salem, the loan does not have to be paid back and therefore becomes a grant. Because the GSL is a non-need-based prog ram, both students demonstrating need and students not demon strating need may apply. The GSL type is a loan and its source is the state where the student resides. Need based scholarship monies are monies given to the institution for financial aid purposes. Examples of those available to Salem are the Moravian, Kent, Reynolds and Whitehead Scholars hips. These monies have specific criterion at tached to each. Each fund has a maximum amount of money which a student can receive. These maximums are set by the source. Monies and their maximums for need based programs are as follows; BEOG, $1750 per year; SEOG, $1500 per year; the Kreiger Loan, no maximum; NDSL, an aggregate of $5000; Student Worker program, $375 per year. (Student Worker Programs are awarded as part of a financial aid package with the option of crediting this money toward room, board and tuition or to use the money for living ex penses.) Monies and their maximums for non need-based programs are: N.C. Legislative Tuition Grant, $550 per year for N.C. residents only; GSL, $2500 per year. (Paid student workers may apply in the spring for campus jobs for the next academic year.) All monies are subject to change from year to year depending on legislative authorization and contributions to financial aid funds by alumnae and friends. Separate from financial aid are three Salem Honor programs which are non-need- based. Qualified fresh men are selected by the Salem Honor Award committee. These awards are the Lucy Hanes Chatham Awards, the Nell Folger Glenn Music Awards and the Salem Scholars Awards. Also, it is important to note that if a student’s financial circumstances have changed or may change in the near future, she should not hesitate to apply for financial aid at any time. A specific example of such financial change would be a student whose parents recently have been divorced. Financial Aid ap plications are available in Len Brinkley’s office in Lehman Hall. An applicant for 1981-82 funds should complete all forms as soon as possible after Jan. 1, 1981, and no later than Mar. 1, 1981.
