Financial Aid Deadlines: Priority

Priority is given to you when you complete your financial aid file by the priority deadlines and show the greatest documented need.

Priority deadlines are established to allow ample time for the processing of your file and timely delivery of funds to you.

Applications for financial assistance are accepted after January 1 of each year for the following academic year. It is recommended that you apply at least two months before the priority deadline.

Financial Aid Program Deadline
Academic Year May 1
Spring Only October 1
Summer Sessions February 15

If the scheduled deadline falls on a holiday or weekend, you have until the next business day to turn in your paperwork.

All applications received after the priority deadline are awarded according to the availability of funds on a first-come, first-serve basis.
