Need a Scholarship or Loan ?
(continued from page 9)
WHAT TYPE OF
APPLICATION IS REQUIRED?
It depends upon the student’s
status - single, married,
independent.
SINGLE STUDENT
Unmarried student who lives with
his parents or is still dependent
upon them for financial support,
and/or is also claimed by parents
as a tax dependent. It is necessary
for this student and his family to
complete the Parents’
Confidential Statement and
submit it to the College
Scholarship Service at Princeton,
New Jersey. College Scholarship
Service prepares a Financial Need
Analysis Report and returns it to
the Office of Financial Aids at
UNC-C. This report is considered
with supplementary information
to determine if the student has a
financial need.
After receiving the Financial
Need Analysis Report, a
supplementary application blank
will be sent to the student for
completion.

are so many things I want to
explore and if I did that I couldn’t
take these other courses. I really
have no interest in teaching; I just
want to find out all I can because
I really don’t know what I want
to do yet.” My faith in
knowledge, (for the sake of
KNOWING about something)
individualism, and the original
concept of college, is restored
when I hear just one person put
that into words. Somebody is
always asking me what I am going
to do with this college education.
(I am guilty of asking someone
that on occasion myself). I am a
music-major at a college that
doesn’t OEEICIALLY have a
music major yet but has a lot of
music majors around taking
advantage of a very fine music
department and on the side, I
am a 36 year old,
dark-gray-headed mother of three,
married to a wonderful guy with
whom I share a 10 room house
full of joyful living. I am curious
about a l.OT of things and like to
follow my nose into interesting
fields of discovery. As Dr. Mathis
would probably say. who knows
better than you do what YOU
want to know about? But I can’t
really give a straight answer to the
pragmatically pul ciueslion as to
what I will “do” with "it” when I
“get" it. 1 have a growing
suspicion that I am “doing
something with it” every time I
think a thought or open my
mouth.
For the second time in a day, 1
made the end of the line, and by
mid-afternoon emerged from
C-building into the fog of day.
First day in years I've seen fog to
the ground Itere at midday, but
then, this was an unusual sort of
day. I remember some old phrase
about “hallowed halls of learning”
or something of that nature
no wonder. Look how much time
we spend in the hall.

is a non-profit program of the
College Entrance Examination
Board that provides a uniform
method of analyzing each
student’s financial need so that
college-aid resources can be
allocated fairly. Approximately
350 colleges in the .South request
financial aid candidates to file a
Parents’ Confidential Statement
with the CSS.
MARRIED STUDENT
Married students are required to
submit a local application form
Financial need is determined from
information submitted on this
form. Married students who apply
for aid during the 1969-70
academic year will also be
required to have their parents sign
an affidavit indicating to what
extent, if any, they provide
financial assistance.
Married students may be
required to complete the Parents’
Confidential Statement if they
receive some financial support
from parents.
INDEPENDENT STUDENT -
It is recognized that special
circumstances may exist in which
an applicant may be considered an
“independent student” and that it
would not be reasonable to expect
any contribution from the parents
or other members of the family
no matter what their financial
ability may be.
Independent students must file
the appropriate application and
submit the Parents’ Affidavit of
Financial Assistance.
IS THERE SPECIAL
ASSISTANCE AVAILABLE FOR
STUDENTS WHO ARE
PLANNING A TEACHING
CAREER? Yes. The Prospective
Teachers Scholarship Loan
program is administered by the
Department of Public Instruction
in Raleigh. Students may borrow
up to $600 per year for
educational expenses. For each
full school year taught in a North
Carolina public school the student
erases his obligation.
Applications must be submitted
to the Superintendent of Public
Instruction by MARCH I, 1969.
The Superintendent shall award
scholarship loans with due
consideration to such factors and
circumstances as: aptitude,
purposefulness, scholarship,
character, financial need, and
areas or subjects of instruction in
which the demands for teachers
are greatest. Applications may be
obtained in the Financial Aids
Office.
WHAT OTHER TYPES OF
LOANS ARE AVAILABLE?
INSURED STUDENT LOAN
PROGRAM — A legal resident of
North Carolina attending an
eligible institution in or out of the
state, full-time, on the
undergraduate or graduate level, is
eligible to apply to the College
Foundation, Inc. at Raleigh. The
program is a cooperative venture
among the private financial
institutions, state and federal
governments, individuals, business
and industry. The participating
banks, life insurance companies,
and educational institutions
provide funds for student loans,
the state insures the loans, and the
federal government pays the
interest during the study period.
A student may borrow up to
$1,000 per year. The federal
government will pay the 7%
interest while the student is in
school plus nine months
thereafter. Repayment of the loan
and 7% interest does not start
until nine months after the
student has graduated.
Extension of repayment may
be granted up to three years for
service in the Armed Forces,
Peace Corps, or VISTA; however,
interest shall accrue and be paid.
The borrower may accelerate
repayment without penalty. The
minimum repayment shall be
$360 per year payable on a
monthly basis. The amount of the
monthly payment and length of
the repayment period are
determined by the total amount
borrowed. The repayment period
may not exceed ten years.
Applications for an Insured
Student Loan may be obtained
from the Financial Aids Office.
The Daughters of the American
Revolution, the Rotary Club,
Knights Templar, and Lions Club
are some of the organizations that
make loan money available to
students at very favorable terms.
Information on these loan
programs may be obtained from
the Director of Financial Aids.
CUBAN STUDENT LOAN
FUND Low-interest loans are
made by the Federal Government
to Cuban students who are
enrolled on a full-time basis and
meet the following requirements;
(a) Students must certify that
they are Cuban nationals and that
as the result of action by the
Cuban governiwit, they are
unable to receive funds from
sources in Cuba, (b) Students
must be in need of the amount of
the loan to pursue their studies at
UNC-C. (c) Students, in the
opinion of the Institution, must
be capable of continuing to
Franklin 6-3548
SPORTING GOODS
ATHLETIC EQUIPMENT
the
maintain a satisfactory standing.
The determination of financial
need will be made on the basis of
information furnished by the
student on the application
supplied by the Commissioner of
Education, U. S. Office of
Education, and in accordance
with the instructions prescribed
by the Commissioner.
MAY A STUDENT APPLY
SPECIFICALLY FOR A
NATIONAL DEFENSE
STUDENT LOAN? This question
is often asked. Other questions are
also asked where students wish to
apply for a specific type of
student aid. Students may
indicate a preference for the type
of aid that they are interested in
receiving. In reality, however,
students at UNC-C apply for
financial aid. The type of aid a
student receives is entirely
dependent upon his need. A
student with a small need may
only require a part-time campus
job to meet his need. A student
with a large need, may receive a
scholarship, a grant-in-aid, a loan,
plus a job to take care of his
financial situation. The type and
amount of aid awarded is
dependent upon the student’s
need as well as the financial
resources available at the time.
FINANCIAL AID? Students who
originally filed the Parents’
Confidential Statement MUST, b
most cases, file a renewal I^j
with the College Scholarship
Service.
Married and independent
students must also file renewal
applications. Students are
required to submit applications
for aid on an annual basis.
Additional information on
financial aid, and applications for
the various programs may be
obtained from Mr. George B
Michie, Jr., Director of Financial
Aids, Room 112, Administration
Building.
WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO
MAKE APPLICATION FOR
FINANCIAL AID FOR THE
1969-70 ACADEMIC YEAR? The
best time is NOW, particularly for
single students, or others, who are
required to submit the Parents’
Confidential Statement. Financial
aid awards for the next school
year will be made in April.
Inasmuch as a processing time of
three to five weeks is required on
the PCS, students cannot wait
until April and expect to receive
the same , consideration as
applicants who file prior to April.

APPLICATION IS NECESSARY
