The Financial Aid Process

How to Apply:

Submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) by the Recommended FAFSA File Date.
Review Financial Aid Status via Banner Self- Service and complete any requested requirements by the Recommended Document Submit Date.
View financial aid awards and Accept/Decline offered loan(s) on the Offer tab of your Financial Aid Record in Banner Self-Service.
First time loan borrowers will need to complete Federal Direct Loan Entrance Counseling, which provides comprehensive information on borrower responsibilities, repayment information, and the terms and conditions of borrowing loans.
Borrowers are also required to sign a Master Promissory Note (MPN) which is a legal agreement to repay the loans and accrued interest. An MPN is required of all first-time borrowers, and borrowers with a previous MPN that is inactive or has expired must also sign a new MPN.
Refer to Student Finance for how to receive financial aid refunds and the requirement for signing up every semester for an installment payment plan.
