We accept financial aid applications year round. However, to ensure funding, you need to finish your Â鶹ÊÓƵ financial aid application at least 60 days before . Applications completed less than 60 days before registration begins will be processed as time permits.

You can use your Â鶹ÊÓƵ PIN to complete the financial aid application process. The good news is, submitting your FAFSA means you’re already done with step one.
