Service During the Holidays, Friend Accounts, and More

Service During the Holiday Season

The Office of Financial Aid, Student Financial Services, and the Registrar’s Office remain committed to serving you in convenient and efficient ways. Dec. 10, 2024 will be the last date students will receive funds during the fall term and the last date to apply for and receive a University Short Term loan.

Did you know you can conduct most of your business online and on-demand? We encourage you to consider these online alternatives to conducting student business in person. Visit our Online Business webpage for more information on the available services. The Office of Financial Aid will be closed for business starting on Dec. 24 at 3 p.m. EST and will reopen on Jan. 2 at 8 a.m. EST.
