Financial Aid and Grants

Student Financial Aid
CDI offers multiple avenues for Financial Assistance to pay for tuition . Federal Financial Aid (Title IV) is available to those who qualify.
Traditional financing is available for all students on approved credit, with interest-only payments while in school.
- Please be aware that traditional financing is for tuition only and cannot be used to pay for your application fee, diving physical, required personal equipment, or housing during the program.
Tuition arrangements may be made in-house for students who would like to make payments for the full tuition amount over the course of the 4 month program. A credit check may be required and a cosigner is recommended.
