To apply for financial aid, all students are required to file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) by the priority filing deadline of March 2. Submit the FAFSA online at www.fafsa.gov. Students that submit their FAFSA after the March 2 deadline will only be considered for any remaining funds.

Eligibility

To be eligible for financial aid, a student must be formally admitted to the University for the purpose of obtaining a degree, certificate or educational credential. Students who are admitted as Unclassified-Post-Baccalaureate are not eligible for financial aid. Students interested in borrowing a student loan must be enrolled at least half-time (6 units undergraduate/credential or 4 units 500-level courses for master's students).
