Current Domestic Students
The priority deadline for returning students to apply for financial aid is March 1, 2024. Students must submit the 24-25 FAFSA and 24-25 CSS Profile to apply for aid.
Students should submit the 24-25 FAFSA once it becomes available in December. The 24-25 CSS Profile is available to submit now. Both applications are due by March 1, 2024.
