How do I apply for financial aid (such as grants, federal work-study and loans)?
For most types of aid offered at UNC Charlotte, students only need to file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Visit www.fafsa.ed.gov to file a FAFSA online. Students may also submit a paper FAFSA. A paper FAFSA can be picked up at financial aid offices, at most high school guidance offices and public library branches. The UNC Charlotte priority filing deadline is April 1. This means that students who have filed a FAFSA by this date will be among the first considered to receive certain types of financial aid, which are limited. If you miss the priority deadline, you may still be eligible to receive other forms of financial aid.
