Full funding normally includes full tuition and a stipend for living expenses for the four to six years a student is in the doctoral program. In most cases, doctoral students are expected to serve as graduate teaching or research assistants in exchange for the awards. This responsibility is typically complementary to your PhD research and provides students with teaching experience.

...when considering a doctorate, research all the potential PhD programs in your academic field, including small and lesser-known schools both in the U.S. and abroad, and ask the admissions office if they fully fund every admitted student. This may have a major impact on the schools you consider applying to....

Both students and professionals might use showcase portfolios, while learning and assessment portfolios are more common in educational settings. The next few sections will look at how e-portfolios are implemented in different. https://ctl.learninghouse.com/e-portfolios-and-their-uses-in-higher-education/
WHO USES E-PORTFOLIOS?
The use of e-portfolios has expanded to most of the education and career world. This ranges from K–12 education, to undergraduate and graduate programs, all the way up to professionals through corporate training and employment mobility. The earlier and more consistent the use of e-portfolios begins, the more substantial their effects can be.
E-portfolios are useful across a variety of disciplines, not just traditionally visually oriented ones like studio art. For example, business programs value the reflection and self-regulated learning aspects of a well-maintained portfolio, and portfolios give students the opportunity to represent their personal and professional growth beyond traditional academic systems (Morales & Soler-Dominguez, 2016)

https://www.greatvaluecolleges.net/faq/what-is-a-nontraditional-student/
The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) maintains a list of seven different characteristics of nontraditional students. They range from delayed college enrollment, to part-time studies combined with full-time work, to being a single parent, or simply the lack of a high school diploma. The original definition for nontraditional students only referred to the student being over age 25 when entering college. With about half of current students ranging in age from 25 to 75, being a nontraditional student is no longer rare or unusual, if it ever was.

75% of all undergraduate students have a least one of these characteristics and are thus "nontraditional" in one way or another.Helpful TipsAmong students with only one nontraditional characteristic, part-time attendance is the most common (36%), followed by full-time employment (23%) and delayed enrollment (23%).Among students with more than three nontraditional characteristics, having a dependent is the most common (80%)

Top Ten Student Financial Literacy Resources On The Web http://cheapscholar.org/2011/04/28/top-ten-best-student-financial-literacy-resources-on-the-web/
When it comes to Student Financial Literacy, nothing can surpass the one-on-one tutorials that mom and dad can provide in the comfort of their home at the kitchen table. However, as young college students move on in life (and usually move out of mom and dad’s house), they need to know that there are a number of solid reliable financial tutorials available 24 hours a day – 7 days a week that they can turn to for financial guidance. The following represents CheapScholar’s picks for the Top Ten Student Financial Literacy Resources on the web. Enjoy!
This student financial literacy resource is provided by the National Endowment for Financial Education (NEFE). This non-profit foundation has been around for more than 30 years and is committed to educating Americans on a broad range of financial topics and empowering them to make positive and sound decisions to reach their financial goals. CashCourse.org serves as a great resource for students as it speaks to many of the common financial pitfalls they may be encountering during their college years.
Their motto is “Where Fun Meets Financial Literacy Education”. I have never heard Financial Literacy and Fun in the same sentence before but the Money Club House helps to bridge the two. They teach kids, teens and adults that learning how money works can be fun, motivating and life changing. Their hands-on activities, projects and games help to shape a curriculum geared toward today’s 21st century learning styles. Their online presence provides informative articles and educational testimonies.
One For Your Money
This up and coming financial literacy web resource is the brain child of Mary Johnson. By visiting this site, college students can gain access to a one-stop-shop for financial tips and money management information. Mary brings together videos, articles, and other financial tools on One For Your Money to keep things new and exciting.
No… this is not the federal treasury where all the U.S. currency/coin is created. Mint.com is a free online budgeting tool that provides the necessary tools for people to meet their financial goals. They attempt to make everything simple and streamlined when it comes to your savings, checking, investment, mortgage and automobile loan goals.
This website should be your number one resource when it comes to managing debt. They provide tools that help to compare credit cards, look at college financing options, track interest rates, maximize tax strategies, identify the best investment and savings vehicles, rate and rank insurance companies, and so much more…
If you are looking for a three pronged approach to financial literacy, then you don’t have to look any further than EducationCents.org. They utilize an interactive website with a self-paced curriculum and partner it with presentations and a printable guide to help get visitors on the path to financial literacy. It is all free and it is underwritten by the Colorado Department of Higher Education.
Did you ever purchase something and then have regret about the amount of money you spent? If so, then you may want to check out Spendster.org. It is a nice “reality check” in the sense that it serves as an outlet for folks to share short videos depicting their outlandish purchases and reflect upon why they shouldn’t have. They currently have over $2 billion dollars of “lousy” purchases tracked on their website. Spendster.org is a great forum for people to talk about adopting good spending habits.
JumpStart.org
What a great name! Jumpstart’s tag line is “Financial Smarts For Students”. JumpStart is a national coalition of organizations that are dedicated to improving financial literacy for students between the ages of kindergarten and college. They provide a plethora of online activities and initiatives to help students establish a foundation focused on financial literacy. Ever hear of the Federal Reserve Board? Yep.. that is one of the first permanent members of the JumpStart coalition.
Great Lakes has long since been recognized by college students around the nation as an education loan servicing agency. Now they are putting their resources into action by providing Financial Literacy for the students in which they serve. Visit Financial IQ to gain great knowledge about student loan repayment, credit ratings, tax basics, identity theft, and more…
This is the financial literacy arm of the U.S. government. MyMoney.gov represents a collaborative effort of over 22 federal organizations to educate our citizens about proper money management. Not only do they provide a great online resource, they will send you a free personal financial toolkit if you call them at (888) – MyMoney

Drug Convictions ( a single conviction under a drug offense could have resulted in immediate and permanent ineligibility for federal student aid. As of 2009, however, it’s become more of a "three strikes" rule...Selling or conspiring to sell illegal drugs has a slightly shorter leash: After conviction for a first offense, students lose aid eligibility for two years and then lose eligibility indefinitely after their second offense. The clock for the ineligible period starts from the date of conviction, rather than the date of the offense...Students who have their federal aid revoked because of a drug conviction can regain eligibility through rehabilitation and drug testing programs.) https://www.usnews.com/education/blogs/student-loan-ranger/2015/04/15/drug-convictions-can-send-financial-aid-up-in-smoke
How can I find out if my drug conviction will disqualify me from federal financial aid?
If you have a drug conviction(s) for these offenses, complete the Student Aid Eligibility
Worksheet for the drug conviction question on the FAFSA to determine if your conviction affects
your eligibility for aid. You can also call the Federal Student Aid Information Center at 1-800-4-
FED-AID (1-800-433-3243).
Even if you are not eligible for federal aid, you may be eligible for aid from the College of Law.
If you are ineligible for federal financial aid, but then become eligible (for example, if your
eligibility date arrives or if you complete an acceptable drug rehabilitation program), notify the
Office of Student Financial Planning at finaid@law.stetson.edu immediately so they can assist
you in exploring aid options.
If I do have a covered drug conviction, what are the periods of ineligibility for federal
financial aid?
If you have been convicted of any offense under any federal or state law involving the possession
or sale of a controlled substance, you are not eligible to receive any grant, loan, or work
assistance under Title IV during the period from the date of the conviction and through the
interval specified below.
The period of ineligibility for federal student aid funds varies depending on whether the
conviction was for sale or possession and whether you had previous offenses. If you were
convicted of both possessing and selling illegal drugs, and the periods of ineligibility are
different, you will be ineligible for the longer period.
Possession of Illegal Drugs:
First Offense: one year from date of conviction
Second Offense: two years from date of conviction
Third+ Offenses: indefinite period
Sale of Illegal Drugs:
First Offense: two years from date of conviction
Second Offense: indefinite period
Third+ Offenses: indefinite period
NOTE: A conviction that was reversed, set aside, or removed from the student’s record does not
count, nor does one received when the student was a juvenile, unless the student was tried as an
adult. Further, you may be able to resume eligibility before the end of your ineligibility period if
you satisfactorily complete an acceptable drug rehabilitation program, discussed in more detail
below.
If I have one or more drug convictions, should I still apply for student aid?
Yes, even if you have drug convictions, you should complete and submit a FAFSA. You may be
eligible, depending on the date and number of convictions. Even if you are ineligible for federal
student aid, you may still be eligible for scholarships or other types of aid from other programs.
3
In addition, you can regain eligibility for the federal programs no matter how many or what type
of drug convictions you have by successfully completing an acceptable drug rehabilitation
program that meets the standards set by Congress and the Department of Education. Doing so
means you will regain eligibility on the date you complete the program. This is discussed below
in more detail.
What is an acceptable drug rehabilitation program?
An acceptable drug rehabilitation program must:
a. have two unannounced drug tests, and
b. it must either:
1. Be qualified to receive funds from a federal, state or local government agency or
program, or from a state-licensed insurance company, or
2. Be administered or recognized by a federal, state or local government agency or
court, or by a state-licensed hospital, health clinic, or medical doctor.
If you want to find out if a drug rehabilitation program meets the described standards, you need
to contact the rehabilitation program.
Before enrolling in a program, you are urged to verify that program completion will also serve as
suitable evidence of rehabilitation in support of any subsequent effort to be admitted to practice
law. Most state bars will look for such information as part of the character and fitness
assessment for admission to practice law.
I submitted my FAFSA before I was convicted. What do I do?
If you are convicted of possessing or selling drugs after you submit your FAFSA, you must
notify the College of Law’s Office of Financial Aid immediately. You will lose your eligibility
and be required to repay all aid you received after your conviction.
Please remember that this notification is in addition to your independent continuing disclosure
obligations under the College of Law’s Amendment to Admissions Application policy. In
addition, College of Law and bar admission disclosure requirements are broader than what is
asked on the FAFSA.
How can I get more information?
If you still have questions about the law, call the Federal Student Aid Information Center at 1-
800-4-FED-AID (1-800-433-3243). Your personal information is confidential, and you will
remain anonymous.
If you have questions about your disclosure obligations under the College of Law Amendment to
Admissions Application policy, contact the Associate Dean for Academic Affairs.

WHAT DOES TITLE IV SCHOOLS MEAN? In addition to meeting the terms and conditions of its Program Participation Agreement with the Department, a participating school must also comply with the following:34 CFR Part 99 (Family Educational Rights and Privacy), 34 CFR Part 600 (Institutional Eligibility), 34 CFR Part 668 (General Provisions), and 34 CFR Part 682 (FFELP) - as well as other Department directives.State licensing requirementsGuarantor policies, procedures, and requirementsAccrediting agency requirementsAll other related requirements for schools, as specified in the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended.A school that wishes to apply for participation should write or call the Institutional Participation Oversight Service, Accreditation and Eligibility Determination Division of USDE at the following address:U.S. Department of Education/IPOS/AEDDInitial Participation BranchROB-3, 3915 7th & D Streets, S.W.Washington, DC 20202-5244(202) 377-3173 - telephone(202) 275-3486 - faxsource: https://www.delval.edu/offices-services/bursars-office/refunds/federal-title-iv-refunds
Title IV funds consist of federal student aid awarded from programs administered by the U.S. Department of Education. Title IV funds include:
- Direct Subsidized loans
- Direct Unsubsidized loans
- Perkins loans
- Direct Graduate PLUS loans
- Direct Parent PLUS loans
- Pell grants
- Supplemental Educational Opportunity grants (SEOG)
- Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher Education (TEACH) grants
Title IV refunds will automatically process within 14 days of the application of the aid to the student’s account, in accordance with federal regulations. The only exception is when a student gives specific written permission to hold all or a portion of the credit balance for additional tution and fees during the same loan period, within the limited circumstances permitted by federal regulations.
If the student signs up for an eRefund, the refund will be wired into the banking system by the fourteenth day. Otherwise, the refund will be issued as a check and will be available to be picked up or mailed by the fourteenth day.
Students in the graduate and Continuing and Professional Studies programs who borrow federal student loans are more likely to have excess Title IV aid disbursed to their accounts and to be eligible for a Title IV refund. Full-time undergraduates are rarely eligible for a Title IV refund.

Title IV: You might have seen this term around during your college research. Whether or not your school of choice is a Title IV institution will affect how you are able to pay for that school now and down the line.
A Quick History Lesson
In 1965, Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Higher Education Act (HEA) into law. The goal was to increase resources for educational institutions and provide financial assistance to those students pursuing an associates, bachelors or other higher education degrees that was at least two years and would prepare them for gainful employment. Title IV of the act outlines rules related to financial aid.
This both outlines regulations to be followed by the schools that want the ability to offer federal financial aid and the expectations of the students to receive it.
The HEA has been amended a number of times to include changes such as not allowing students with a drug charge to receive federal aid and to require participating schools to make real efforts in encouraging and providing easy access to voter registration for students. These amendments still stand today.

Yes. Pennsylvania anti-bullying laws cover off-campus conduct. Pennsylvania anti-bullying laws state that a school entity shall not be prohibited from defining bullying in such a way as to encompass acts that occur outside a school setting if those acts meet the requirements contained in the bullying definition in state law.

EDUCATION COSTS - INVESTOPEDIA https://www.investopedia.com/articles/professionaleducation/09/mba-real-costs.asp
Higher education costs in the United States have outgrown the rate of inflation, and getting an MBA has associated tuition expenses along with rent and book costs. MBAs, especially those who go to private business schools, can accumulate between $100,000 and $200,000 in debt and expenses in just over a two-year period. Fortunately, for those who are highly motivated to secure an MBA, there are alternative options one can explore in order to both receive the degree as well as minimize the costs...
So summing it up, $80,000 for tuition, $40,000 for boarding and books, $20,000 for peripheral expenditures brings the total MBA cost to around $140,000, while the lost income brings the tab to a whopping $260,000. That figure amounts to more than four years of salary at an annualized income rate of $60,000

Great list, Doug. One site I’ve always sent my clients to is the US Department of Education; it may not be a financial literacy hub per se, but it does provide an excellent overview of the types of funding available from the federal government as well as the repayment options available to students once they enter repayment.
Keep up the great work here.
Very informative. Another one that I’ve checked out is cuStudentLoans.org – it’s a group of not-for-profit credit unions offering student loans but with a key focus on financial literacy.
