From scholarships to grants, practical loans, and more, our team is dedicated to finding creative, outside-the-box ways to help you keep your costs low.

Helping you plan your future

Financial literacy is a key component of preparing for life as you progress beyond high school and college. The financial decisions you make early in life can have a profound impact on your future goals. As you are preparing for the college expenses it is important to explore the best options you have at your disposal through potential scholarships, federal and private student loans. As you are evaluating these options, make sure you fully understand your financial obligations in the short and long term. There may be instances where funding will not cover your full college expenses, so understanding the best solution to fill these gaps is vital to a sound financial future. Working with the Business Office and Financial Aid staff here at the Art Academy can help you through these decisions.

How to pay for college?

This is a thought that usually comes to mind while researching prospective colleges. College is an essential investment for your future and you must understand what financial options you have to fund your future education. No matter your income, several financial resources are at your disposal to make your dream education a reality. The Art Academy of Cincinnati is committed to guiding you to resources to help you navigate funding an art school education.
