Our support does not end when you begin your degree at Carey.

We understand that managing educational expenses can be challenging, and Carey Business School is dedicated to supporting current students through every step of their academic journey, including navigating the financial aid process. As a current student, we understand that you may be looking for resources and answers to topics such as policies, payment plans, contact information, and more. To ensure you have the correct support, Carey Business School partners directly with the Johns Hopkins Office of Student Enrollment and Account Management, or SEAM, to help students navigate the financial aid, billing, and tuition payment processes for Carey Business School.

Students will work directly with SEAM to receive information about financial aid. SEAM serves as a comprehensive resource for information on financial aid, student accounts, and registration, centralizing student services for a more holistic support experience. SEAM works with students Monday – Friday over the phone, virtually, or in-person to assist you with any questions or concerns you have.

Scholarships

Carey provides scholarships to students based on their strong academic record, along with professional and personal achievements, and potential to contribute to the Carey community. In addition to the scholarship opportunities available at the time of admission to your program, current Carey MBA and Master of Science students can apply for endowed scholarships. Carey offers 17 endowed scholarships each year to current students in good academic standing. Returning students who meet the academic criteria may receive funding first, as these scholarships are primarily merit-based.

Many private sector organizations offer scholarships to students as a part of their philanthropic activities. As a current student, you may want to investigate these opportunities each year and contact clubs or organizations to determine whether they offer scholarship opportunities. To learn more information, please visit Carey’s Private Scholarships webpage.

Carey also compiles a list of external funding opportunities on our scholarship e-bulletin board. Private agencies and organizations frequently reach out to Carey Business School regarding the need-based and merit scholarships, grants, and fellowships they offer. If you receive an outside scholarship, please submit your third-party payment documents to ensure timely recording of your accomplishment.

Financial aid process

Carey students receiving need-based aid or federal student loans must reapply each year by filing a renewal FAFSA. Fully admitted students are eligible to receive up to $20,500 annually in federal loans. Please refer to Carey’s financial aid process for detailed information on how to submit your FAFSA.

Johns Hopkins participates in the Federal Direct Loan Program. As a student, you have rights and responsibilities when you borrow a federal student loan. Please refer to the Direct Loan Process for more information.

After submitting your FAFSA, your file will be reviewed within 5-10 business days. Some students may be selected for verification, requiring additional documentation such as IRS tax transcripts and W-2 forms. Once all documents are submitted and reviewed, corrections are made if needed, and an updated Student Aid Report is provided. You will receive an offer notice once all required documents are received and reviewed. Learn more about next steps.

We highly recommend you apply by the priority FAFSA filing deadline (below) and respond in a timely manner. This will ensure your financial aid is ready for the start of the semester and will be paid to your student account by the time you begin classes. Learn more about paying your bill with financial aid.

Deadlines and timelines

The priority filing date to apply for financial aid each year is:
•    Fall semester: April 15 for part-time programs and March 15 for full-time programs.
•    Spring semester: November 1.

Students can apply for financial aid at any time during the academic year, prior to the end of classes. However, the application process can take time, and only those who apply by the priority filing date can be assured that their financial aid awards will be ready for the start of classes. Maryland residents who wish to be considered for Maryland state scholarships must complete their FAFSA prior to March 1.

Payment plans and methods

Carey offers students two payment plan options to pay their tuition and fees. Please refer to Payment Schedule A and  Payment Schedule B for the current options. Any questions about payment plans should be directed to SEAM .

Carey allows various payment methods for students to pay for their education including electronic checks, checks by mail, sponsor or employer contract, Johns Hopkins University tuition assistance, wire transfers, or Nelnet Campus Commerce monthly payment plans. 

For more information about payment plans and methods, please visit SEAM’s Payment Methods webpage.
