13. Financial Aid Steps
13
Financial Assistance may be available to help you pay for your inSPIRE online program.
We can help you obtain federal and state aid.
 Complete the FAFSA on the Web. www.fafsa.gov
 Obtain a PIN number to electronically sign your FAFSA www.pin.ed.gov
 If you are a Virginia Resident, complete the application form for the 13-14 Virginia Tuition Assistance Grant, and submit it
to the Financial Aid Office by July 31 to assure funding. Late applications are accepted through December 1 (awarded only
if state funds are available). The form is available on the BC website. The estimated award for 2013-14 is currently $1,400
for Fall and $1,400 for Spring.
 So that we may better understand how to proceed with your financial aid, we ask that you complete a Tuition & Fees
Agreement. The form is available on our website. This important form also helps us know who we can speak with
regarding your financial matters under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act.
 The Federal government selects around one-third of federal aid applicants for a process called Verification. If you are
selected, we will need copies of your signed tax documents, W-2‟s, and a signed Verification Worksheet. We will notify you
if you have been selected, and ask for additional paperwork.

14. Federal Student Loans
If you apply for federal aid and wish to receive federal loans, there will be a number of
additional steps to complete.
 You must first complete the FAFSA and be eligible to receive Federal Direct Student
Loans.
 We will examine your eligibility based on past loans, grade level, dependency, and
load/status.
 You will need to complete a Loan Request Form and submit it to the Financial Aid
Office.
 You will need to complete a Master Promissory Note at www.studentloans.gov
 You will need to complete Entrance Counseling at www.studentloans.gov
14

15. Financial Aid Reminders
 Use your MyBC account online to keep up-to-date on your financial aid and school account. You
can see your financial aid awards on MyBC as well as any missing documents that may be holding
up your financial aid processing or disbursements.
 You will need to apply for aid each year by completing the Renewal FAFSA. This may be
completed as early as January for the upcoming Fall/Spring/Summer academic year. We ask
inSPIRE students to complete the Renewal FAFSA by March 15, but no later than the end of June to
ensure their aid is in place for the new year.
 You can only receive financial aid at one school per semester. If taking courses at a community
college or other school, ensure you only seek financial aid from one institution.
 You must be enrolled in a full semester to receive financial aid. For inSPIRE, a semester is made
up of two 8-week terms.
 You must be enrolled in at 6 credit hours (half time) spanning 16 weeks in a semester to receive
federal loans.
15

16. Financial Aid Reminders (cont.)
 You must be a Virginia resident and a full-time student to receive the Virginia Tuition
Assistance Grant (VTAG), and it is only available for Fall and Spring semesters.
 Our accelerated degree-completion program often spans more than the traditional
two semesters per academic year. If you receive Pell grants or federal loans, speak to
us about spreading your financial aid over 3 semesters rather than 2, so that you have
enough aid to cover your charges for all semesters.
 If you have to drop a course or withdraw entirely from school, be sure to complete the
proper paperwork and withdraw officially. Failure to do so could leave you owing a large
balance.
 Be sure to read all letters, emails, phone calls, & requests we send you. Your $$
depends on it!

What is RamAlert?
Bluefield College’s RamAlert is a wireless emergency notification system created in an effort to
enhance communication to students, parents, faculty and staff during times of crisis on campus.
Through RamAlert, trained and authorized Bluefield College administrators are able to warn the
campus community of an impending emergency and provide timely information to minimize disruption
and potentially prevent harm or protect lives. In the case of an emergency, subscribers to RamAlert will
receive a text and/or e-mail message with details of the crisis and any necessary action plan.
Participants must “opt in” to the system to receive the alerts. Messages, sent through a secure web
portal, can be received via cell phone (text) or e-mail.
Why is it important for an inSPIRE Online student to sign up for RamAlert?
While this system is primarily setup for emergencies related to our physical campus, we have found it
useful for conveying information regarding major system outages to our online students and faculty. In
the past year, we have experienced a major power outage on campus that affected MyBC for several
days. Regionally, we have experienced two natural disasters , an earthquake and the recent wind
storms. These two events did not affect our physical campus, however, both occurred during the first
week of classes and left many of our students and faculty with out power or internet access. The
RamAlert system provides an avenue for Bluefield College to communicate both information and
instructions to our students in these situations.

23. 23
How do I subscribe?
To subscribe to RamAlert, you must have your BC identification number or
Jenzabar ID.
• Go to MyBC , https://mybc.bluefield.edu.
• Log in with your username (Jenzabar ID) and password.
• Click the "Student Life" tab at the top of the main page for MyBC.
• Next, under the "Student Life" header in the left column panel, find and click the
"RamAlert" link.
• Finally, use the sign-up form on this page to register for a RamAlert account.
During the registration process, you will need to provide your name, a username (which
must be your MyBC username or Jenzabar ID number), a password (preferably your
MyBC password), a mobile phone number, and an e-mail address. And, while RamAlert is
designed for members of the campus community, accounts for parents of students or
spouses of employees may be created simply by using your MyBC username and
password and registering a different mobile phone number and separate email
address.

THE HONOR CODE AT BLUEFIELD COLLEGE
"Honor shall uphold the humble in spirit.” Proverbs, 29:23
Bluefield College is committed to the pursuit of truth, the dissemination of knowledge, and
the high ideals of personal honor and respect for the rights of others. These goals can
only be achieved in a setting in which intellectual honesty and personal integrity are highly
valued and other individuals are respected. This academic code of conduct reflects our
corporate and earnest desire to live lives of honor that are above reproach, based upon
Christian principles. Each member of the community is called upon to understand and
agree to its concepts and to operate within its spirit.
Honor is an ideal and an obligation that exists in the human spirit and lives in the relations
between human beings. An honorable person shall not lie or cheat or steal.
In all scholarly work produced by community members, academic honesty is inherent and
apparent, the work being the original work of the author unless credit is given through the
use of citations and references.
In all relationships, the college community expects respect and integrity between its
members and toward all peoples and organizations. Honesty and civility are required
elements of an effective learning environment. Truthfulness and respect for others are
shared values of Bluefield College and are expected characteristics of its members.
Continued on the next slide:

THE HONOR CODE AT BLUEFIELD COLLEGE
"Honor shall uphold the humble in spirit.” Proverbs, 29:23
Continued from the previous slide:
Students at Bluefield College commit to the ideals of integrity, individual responsibility, and
mutual respect when they sign the Honor Code during freshman orientation.
The Honor Code affirms the core values of Bluefield College to “develop students‟
potential through academic excellence and the intentional integration of faith, the liberal
arts and professional studies;” and to “create a caring community characterized by
respect, support and encouragement for each member of our College community.”
Membership in the student body of Bluefield College means agreeing to follow
those standards of conduct which govern an honorable person in every walk of life.
Because the integrity of degrees granted by Bluefield College depends upon the
Honor Code, all students in every class must regard themselves as bound by their
honor not to cheat in any form. “Honor shall uphold the humble in spirit.”
