Can Adas participate in the PRAXIS Internship program?
Yes (link to PRAXIS). Questions about State Grants: How is a state grant treated in the aid package- is it outside aid? State grants are considered to be entitlement (need, not merit based) aid and as such reduce your eligibility for Smith Grant per the college’s outside aid policy. The only exceptions are state merit grants such as the Massachusetts Performance Bonus Grant which is treated as outside merit aid. The state says I am ineligible based on income -why do you say I have a grant? Because you are returning to school and have indicated a lower academic year income, we have used professional discretion to base your eligibility for aid on academic year income. The state will send us a roster and we will use that to send them the new income information and certify your eligibility.
