To be considered for the Harding Grant, please complete the application below and complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) beginning October 1st of your senior year of high school. The FAFSA will be used to determine your Expected Family Contribution (EFC). Once Harding receives your FAFSA, you will be considered for need-based federal, state and institutional grants including the Harding Grant. Need-based grants will be communicated to students on their award letters, which are sent to admitted students in late fall and spring, each year.
