Financial Aid
The Office of Financial Aid administers grants, loans, scholarships, and part-time
employment. Financial Aid is received by the university and posted to your student
account to pay tuition and all other fees that do not require specific authorization
(Title IV). Aid will pay fees requiring authorization as long as student's written
authorization (Title IV) is received prior to aid posting to your student account.
Fees that require specific authorization will NOT be deferred if we do not have written
authorization. Fees must be paid by the first day of the semester as published in
the catalog. You will receive an email when the funds are received by the university.
(e.g. fees that need Title IV authorization include, but are not limited to, parking
fees, student equipment & exam fees.)
Refer to the Student Financial Aid Office for specific information regarding your financial aid.
Student Emergency Loans
Student Emergency Loans are established by donors to provide immediate funds to students
for assistance with tuition and fees. These funds may be used as a bridge to assist
students with expenses until financial aid is processed for the current semester.
Student emergency loans are administered based on the terms of the donor. Loan conditions
may include loan limits and any applicable loann interest charges. The Student Financial
Aid Office or respective Schools are responsible for determining qualified loan recipients,
based on the donor terms.

the aid, your account balance will automatically be deferred until aid is received
by the university.

you must come to the Bursar's Office to request a written deferment. The deferment
must be in place by the first day of the semester as it is published in the catalog
or you will be subject to dismissal.
