The Financial Aid Office (FAO) uses Ace Mail for all official university communication.  It is suggested you check your Ace Mail account frequently.


Your award package is an estimate based on your projected enrollment status of full time for undergraduates and half time for graduates, to be adjusted after the census date each semester. Aid is disbursed to students no earlier than 10 days before the start of each semester. If a credit balance is given to the student before the census date, it is the student's responsibility to return any funds issued when undergraduate enrollment is less than full time or graduate enrollment is less than half time. Awards are subject to change due to a variety of factors. Be advised, it is the student's responsibility to notify the Financial Aid Office (FAO) of any enrollment changes as well as any outside aid that has not been added to your award package, as these changes may directly affect your Financial Aid package.
