How does the awarding process work?
If we have received a valid FAFSA and you have completed any additional requirements that may have been requested from you, we typically begin the awarding process on May 1st. Based upon your estimated cost of attendance for the program you are in or have applied for and your year in that program, your initial award package will reflect your aid eligibility up to that cost of attendance. Cost of attendance expenses include estimates for tuition and fees, books and supplies, the purchase of a computer during your first year in attendance, and a modest cost of living allowance.
