IMPORTANT NOTES:

  • Prioritize accepting the most beneficial forms of financial aid. Begin with gift aid, such as scholarships and grants, followed by self-help aid like federal work study, and then consider borrowing money through direct student loans. Private loans should only be considered after exhausting other options. More information .
  • Students should accept financial aid by the first Friday of add/drop week in order to be deferred. Financial aid can be accepted up to two weeks before a semester ends to allow disbursement. Incoming students are required to submit their deposit by the specified Admissions Tuition Deadline in order to secure their financial aid offer.
  • If you will not be attending 国产伦理, please DECLINE all financial aid offers. If you do not decline all financial aid offers, you will be fee liable for the courses in which you are enrolled.
  • You may accept a partial amount of a financial aid offer by entering the amount in the "Accept Partial Amount" field.
  • Once you have made a decision on your financial aid offer, no further updates can be made online. Adjustments to offers will require students to submit a revision form.
  • In some cases, if you will be enrolled for only one term and the offer is for more than one term, then a offer revision request may be required to update the offer (i.e. Seniors graduating in the Fall term).
  • Financial Aid funds are disbursed after the drop/add deadline of each semester. Tuition and other charges posted to your student account will be deducted first. If a credit balance results, the student will receive a refund. Students are encouraged to sign-up for direct deposit.
