Financial Aid Dates and Priority Deadlines

The FAFSA, Data Sheet, and any required documents for the appropriate academic year must be successfully completed and submitted to the Financial Aid office before your file is considered to have met the priority deadline.

If you complete your file by the dates listed below, our goal is to have your financial aid eligibility determined in time for the tuition due date.

Applications completed after the Financial Aid priority deadline will be reviewed by the following quarter’s tuition due date. Late applicants must arrange other means for tuition and fees to be paid. Our Payment Plan can be an option. Students may receive funding, if eligible, retroactively. If unable to pay, students are responsible for withdrawing from classes and/or looking for other funding resources.
