Financial Aid
The Undergraduate Financial Aid Office is your first stop for answers and support related to financial aid. The office administers federal, state, and institutional need-based aid programs and processes outside scholarships. Our counselors are available to answer your questions related to financial aid over the summer and during the academic year.
Keeping Tabs
The Undergraduate Financial Aid Office will email students during the summer regarding their aid packages and any information needed to finalize awards. All students applying for or receiving aid should regularly use the Financial Aid, Tasks, and My Account tiles on CAESAR to keep tabs on aid-related matters. If you have questions about your financial aid award, or if you have not yet applied for aid but are interested in doing so, please call or email our office.
Financial Aid on Your Bill
Anticipated aid (with the exception of work-study) will be reflected on the first tuition bill for the fall quarter, generated in August.
Federal Work-Study-Eligible Students
Work-study-eligible students will receive an email from the Federal Work-Study Office before the end of the summer with information about the program and the work-study orientation and job fair held during Wildcat Welcome. Note that students accepting work-study employment must provide identification—such as a Social Security card, US passport, or birth certificate—at the time of hire.
