I'm over the minimum age to live in the dorms, but I would like to live in one of the apartments on campus. Will my financial aid help cover the expense if it's university owned? If so, how much?
 
If you are over the minimum age-- are you 24? are you an independent student? meaning did you claim yourself on income tax for the last 2 years? if so, you will qualify for more money and when you are awarded financial aid, the amount is only equal to books and classes..not room and board...you will have to find a private loan or get a part time job to cover the expense.
