Continuing Students
All financial aid awards are made for no more than one academic year. Continuing students who wish to be considered for financial aid reapply every year. Every award year is based on tax information; thus, a student should never assume that financial aid amounts are the same for the following year. If the reapplication process is not completed by July 1st for the fall semester, December 1st for the spring semester, or April 1st for the summer semester, the student should not assume that he or she will be eligible for federal financial aid. Also, students submitting their paperwork after the priority deadline may not assume they will receive their aid at registration.
