Most federal and state funds offered are contingent upon the availability of funds. Financial Aid Applications are accepted throughout the school year with a final filing deadline of the 2nd Saturday in June of each year. Students are encouraged to apply as soon as possible.

A financial aid award letter is issued after the Financial Aid staff determines the student's financial aid file is complete. Students with a valid e-mail address on file will receive an e-mail message indicating that their financial aid award letter is accessible online. Students without a valid e-mail address on file will receive an award letter by mail. It is your responsibility to maintain updated contact information with the Admissions and Records office.

To access financial aid information online: go to MyWebServices ^, select "MyWebServices" from the main menu, login to view your student information, then select one of the financial aid options.
