The application process begins in January, a full eight months before the academic year for which you are applying. Everyone who needs financial assistance to attend college should apply for aid. The process of applying for financial aid can take 6 to 8 weeks to complete. Your application will not be complete until all documents requested have been filed and reviewed in our office. Whenever you receive financial aid correspondence, review it thoroughly and follow directions promptly.
Delays can be frustrating, as well as costly.
You must be accepted and classified as a degree seeking student at UCF in an eligible program. Students with documented disabilities for whom part-time enrollment status is a necessary accommodation, confirmed by the Office of Student Disability Services, are now eligible. You must maintain UCF's standards for Satisfactory Academic Progress . You are required to inform us of any additional assistance you receive beyond that listed on your award letter. Any subsequent awards or income may necessitate a revision of your financial aid award.
