The 2026–27 FAFSA form can be completed online at studentaid.gov. Please be aware that every individual registering for a class must complete a FAFSA application. This requirement aligns with the Ohio Department of Higher Education’s reporting standards.  For assistance with the FAFSA process, visit the Federal Student Aid Help Center.

Financial Assistance

Financial assistance may be available for short-term classes for those who qualify. Complete and submit the federal financial aid application, FAFSA, online at https://studentaid.gov/h/apply-for-aid/fafsa and print out the first page which displays your Student Aide Index (SAI). We no longer accept the FAFSA for payment of classes. However, getting the SAI will tell us if the qualifications are met to use the Ohio Talent/Work Ready Grant funds. The grants will be disbursed on a first come, first serve basis. Class will need to be paid in full if the grant funding is no longer available or the qualifications are not met. To submit an application for the partial grant funding, click here.

Payment of Fees

State funding may be available for those who qualify; however it is a limited amount. It will be disbursed on a first come, first serve basis upon review of your application and FAFSA Student Aid Index. Class will need to be paid in full if the grant funding is no longer available. Payment can be made by VISA, MasterCard, Discover, cash, or check payable to MVCTC Adult Education. When a class is canceled, full refunds are issued. Payment plans are also available. Call the Adult Education office at 937-854-6297 for more information.

Books

The class fee includes the cost of books and other supplies. Books are generally distributed during the first class. Materials and supplies are made available as needed.

Class Cancellation

It is important to start the registration process early. So please REGISTER EARLY!  Classes with insufficient enrollment are subject to cancellation. Rescheduling or postponing may be necessary to establish a minimum number of students. In addition, some classes will reach capacity several weeks prior to the start date. Registering early and finalizing payment of the class will help to ensure the class is held as scheduled.

Certificates

Students who successfully complete a class receive an official school certificate in addition to any credential earned through the class noting their accomplishment. Certificates will be available within two weeks of the class ending.  The school does not retain copies of certificates, therefore duplicates cannot be issued.
