North Carolina Legislative Tuition Grants
North Carolina Legislative Tuition Grants are provided by
the North Carolina General Assembly for students who are residents
of North Carolina for the purpose of tuition payment under the
terms of the Residency Manual of the University of North Carolina.
Generally, these are students who, along with their parents,
have been legal residents of North Carolina for at least twelve
months prior to enrollment at Wake Forest. Certain other categories
of students may also be eligible, including children of military
personnel with North Carolina residency status who live out
of state, residents who live near the state border, or residents
who have recently moved out of state. Residency determinations
are made by the aid office. Grants are reduced by twenty-five
percent for those students having already completed 140 hours.
Amounts on award letters are estimates, subject to adjustment
when the actual authorized grant is determined each summer.
The grant amount for 2008-2009
is $975 per semester. To be eligible each semester, a student
must enroll in a minimum of twelve hours (through October 1
in the fall and through the tenth day of classes in the spring),
maintain satisfactory academic progress for federal aid eligibility,
and have not received or qualified for a bachelor’s degree.
A student in the five-year BS/MS in accountancy
program is not eligible during the last year of that program.
In addition, a student must not be enrolled in a program of
study the objective of which is the attainment of a degree in
theology, divinity or religious education, or in any other program
of study that is designated by Wake Forest primarily for career
preparation in a religious vocation.
Students (including those studying abroad) must submit an NCLTG Application to the aid office by the end of the first week of
classes of their first semester of each academic year. (Special Note: We can not accept faxed copies of this form. An original signature is required.)
There
are no exceptions to this deadline; students who are otherwise
eligible but who fail to submit a timely application cannot
receive NCLTG funding. The online application is made available
by the state each year during the summer. Once available, students
should download, print, complete, sign, and return the NCLTG
application to the Office of Student Financial Aid at Wake Forest
University prior to the application deadline. Click here to print a copy of the
2008-09 NCLTG Application. (Special note: Do not skip
sections 12a & 12b.)
