Students should also apply for outside aid to local and national organizations that provide scholarships and grants. Our office or your high school counselor may provide assistance in helping locate these programs. Your local library may also have reference manuals on financial aid sources. From an analysis of these confidential forms, the amount of parental and student income and assets that may be applied toward university costs is determined. The application will be considered for financial aid as soon as the student has been granted admission to the university.
Important Tips Apply early, making sure all deadlines are met.
Fill out forms completely and accurately. Keep copies of everything. Use your legal name on all documents. Double check your Social Security Number. Take personal responsibility for your financial aid.
