financial aid office to assure compliance with federal and state program regulations by the dean of admissions and Janice
Morrell, who act as liaisons to the

New Brunswick
students, the dean of admissions is available periodically at the

H.
Levin
Building
on the

Fellowship, scholarship, and grant applicants must complete an application for admission to RBS. If two merit applicants are of equal merit, the award will be granted to the student demonstrating greater computed financial need. The decision of the school is considered final.

A 7% interest rate loan is available to students enrolled in the program in professional accounting. The awards may not exceed the cost of tuition. Application for this program should be made as a loan of last resort only. Interested students must complete the RBS application for financial aid in addition to the
