LIU Brooklyn is dedicated to providing assistance to help make a college education affordable for all students.

Financial aid counselors are available in person and via phone or email to assist students and parents with questions pertaining to securing financial aid, including grants, scholarships, loans, and student employment, as well as payment options to assist in meeting educational expenses.

All students who plan to attend LIU can apply for financial aid. Applications for financial aid are considered after you have been accepted for admission and your FAFSA has been received by the campus. It is important to apply early.

Pursuing a higher education and studying abroad can be expensive. But when you choose the education that’s right for you and your goals, it can be worth every penny, and LIU Global is committed to helping you find ways to afford college. All applicants are evaluated for a merit-based scholarship awarded based on a student’s previous academic record. Merit scholarships are awarded per academic year and are renewable to students who remain in good standing.

Safety is our number one priority. We keep a close eye on global politics and regional disruptions and do not hesitate to shift field trips, to move students, or change programs entirely if we feel that the students are in a dangerous situation. In making these decisions, we follow the U.S. State Department travel warnings which are constantly updated on the State Department website.
