Financial Aid Office

Current Aid Processing Status:

Current Aid Processing Status: Due to the large volume of incoming applications and documents, we are experiencing a longer than normal processing time.

We are now past our published deadline of May 1st for the receipt of all documents and forms for the 2013-14 academic year. All documents received by August 27th have been entered into the Banner system. We are unable to answer inquiries for documents received after that date. Financial aid packages where all documents were received by August 15th have been processed. If documents were received after that date awards will not be able to be processed by the bill due date. Please continue to check Web Banner for your individual status or here for further general updates. We continue to process aid applications received after our deadline in the order they were received. Late filers will need to make alternative payment arrangements for your student bill as we will be unable to process your financial aid file by the bill due date.

Those students needing to obtain additional resources to cover any bill balances may wish to consider the time payment plan available from the Student Accounts Office. A Federal Direct PLUS loan or a private alternative loan may be an option. However, this will not be processed by the bill due date. Please see our website for details.

Note: Those students receiving federal student loans should now be completing their onetime entrance counseling if not done previously and also sign any required electronic master promissory notes. Details may be found at the below loan links:

• Undergraduate Loans
• Graduate Loans

Please be aware that all Federal Work-Study, Federal Perkins and Federal Nursing Loan funds are currently exhausted. We are unable to award or reinstate these funds as they are no longer available.
