Summer 2024 is considered part of the 2023-2024 academic year for financial aid purposes.

We must have your 2023-2024 FAFSA processed to consider you for summer aid. The last day to complete the 2023-24 FAFSA is June 30, 2024. Students must be registered at least half-time (minimum 6 credits for Undergraduate, Law, Dental, and Health Sciences Graduate Programs; minimum 4 credits for Graduate) to qualify for most federal aid.

The Office of Student Financial Aid will offer Title IV aid to all eligible students enrolled at least half-time over the summer semester.

Once you are registered for classes and your 2023-2024 FAFSA has been reviewed, you will receive an email notification at your eMarq account regarding the results of our review.
