Post-Hoc External Benefits Scholarships and Grants
Post-hoc financial aid refers to additional tuition benefits, scholarships, and grants for which a student qualifies after receiving notification of Lindenwood University’s financial aid package. In these instances, the first $1,000 earmarked annually (divided evenly amongst terms) for books in post-hoc outside benefits received will not reduce the amount of the Lindenwood grant. In cases in which a student receives an outside award that exceeds $1,000 earmarked for books, Lindenwood will reduce its institutional merit and need-based gift aid by 100 percent of the external benefit(s) received in excess of the $1,000 maximum. If the student has not received any Lindenwood grant, this policy does not apply. In no case may the total award exceed the cost of attendance (room, board, tuition, books, and fees).
