Gift aid is financial assistance that a student receives and is not required to pay back as long as the student meets the requirements for receiving the aid. Scholarships and grants are the most common type of gift aid. Self-help aid is financial assistance that must be paid back to a lender or earned by the student. The most common sources of self-help aid are federal and private loans, which require repayment of the principle as well as any associated interests or fees.
