FAFSA for 2012-2013 Available:  Students may begin completing the FAFSA for the 2012-2013 award year.  Remember the priority deadline is May 1; the sooner you complete your FAFSA the sooner your aid can be processed.  

4-27-12 Attention Students:

In a recent change by legislation we are now required to request Tax Return Transcripts from only those students selected for Verification.  Please make sure that when you turn these transcripts into the financial aid office that you have signed the first two pages of the transcript.  Instructions on obtaining the Tax Transcript can be found through our forms link.     

3-19-12 Attention Students:

Congress passed a resolution that included the elimination of two Pell's within an award year beginning with the second scheduled award for the 2011-12 academic year.  With this change we are no longer able to offer year-round Pell to students.  What this means for you:  If you received Full-time Pell in the Fall & Spring semesters, you will not have any remaining Pell eligibility for the Summer 2012 semester.  If you did not attend full time, or receive all of your full time eligibility for the Fall and Spring semesters then we can only award you the remaining Pell eligibility from the single Pell award as long as you are still meeting all other eligibility criteria.
