•  Financial Aid

Here at Health-Tech Institute of Memphis we understand financing an education is big concern for many people and families.  We work personally with each student to find their best funding option.

HTIM participates in the following financial aid programs:

Title IV  Federal Student Aid Programs

Federal Pell Grant Program 

Federal Pell Grants are usually awarded to undergraduate students who display financial need. Unlike a loan, a Pell Grant does not have to be repaid, except under certain circumstances. 

Federal Direct Loan Program

We offer three types of Direct Loans students can apply for to cover cost based on financial need.

Direct Subsidized Loans are loans made to eligible undergraduate students who demonstrate financial need.

Direct Unsubsidized Loans are loans made eligible to undergraduate, graduate and professional students not based on financial need.

Direct Parent Plus Loans are loans made eligible to parents of dependent undergraduate students to help pay for education expenses not covered by other financial aid.  A credit check is required for eligibility.

Scholarship and waiver funds are coordinated by the Department of Financial Aid to attract high-ability students, to add to the diversity of the student population, and to remove financial barriers to maintain access for all qualified students.
