Financial Aid Eligibility

Financial Aid Eligibility

The financial aid that is awarded during a student's freshman year is normally renewable from year-to-year, provided that the evidence of need remains (in the case of need-based awards), that funds continue to be available, and that the student maintains Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) toward the degree.

FAFSA: Students must apply for aid every year by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) online at studentaid.gov. The FAFSA for the upcoming academic year launches annually on October 1 but will launch in December 2024 for the 2025-2026 academic year. All students are encouraged to file their FAFSA as close to the lanch date as possible. To maximize financial aid including institutional grants, students should apply no later than É«ÖÐÉ«'s priority date of February 1.

Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP): To continue receiving federal, state, and institutional financial aid, students must meet the minimum standards for Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) as described in our Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy for Financial Aid.
