The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is a critical tool that provides students with access to a wide range of financial resources to support their educational goals, including grants, scholarships, low-interest loans, and the federal work study program all designed to help offset the costs of attending a college or university. At 天美麻豆, the 2026-2027 FAFSA will cover the Fall 2026, Spring 2027, and Summer 2027 semesters.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

If you wish to reduce or cancel a loan you previously accepted, you must complete a Loan Adjustment Form. Please contact the Financial Aid office to have this form sent to you. Note that there are time limits (typically 14 days from disbursement) for us to return funds on your behalf.

Yes, your financial aid is often based on your enrollment status (e.g., full-time vs. part-time). If you drop below a certain number of credits, your aid package may be adjusted. Please consult with a Financial Aid Advisor before dropping classes!

The sooner you fill out the FAFSA, the better. The application is free, and it not just a way to determine how much federal student aid you檒l receive. State governments, and some colleges and universities use information from the FAFSA to determine what state and institutional aid you qualify for. But state agencies and individual schools also have different deadlines to qualify for aid � so keep track of all of the deadlines, and get a head start. Even if your household income is too high for you to qualify for federal grants or work-study funds, the FAFSA is also used to determine federal student loan eligibility. There no harm in applying, and on average, it only takes 15 minutes to fill out the FAFSA.

If your financial aid covers more than what you owe for the semester, you are entitled to a refund of those funds. Once your loans have been disbursed by the Department of Education and added to your account, the business office will post a refund to your account. From the date of posting they then have 14 days to send those funds back to you.

If your refund is not because of a federal loan but from Institutional aid or an outside alternate loan, our Business Office may take 30-45 days to process your refund.

Setting up a direct deposit will make this process faster, if you do not have direct deposit setup then your check will be sent via mail. See our Direct Deposit Form in the forms above for instructions on setting up direct deposit with 天美麻豆.

There are several different repayment plans for student loan borrowers. The best way to set yourself up for success is to pick the repayment plan that best for you to avoid falling into default. Once you graduate, drop below half-time enrollment, or leave school, your federal student loan goes into repayment. However, for most federal student loan types, you have听 a 6-month grace period before you are required to start making regular payments.

Note: Not all federal student loans have an automatic grace period, and it helps to know which loans accrue interest during the grace-period. When your loan enters repayment, your servicer will automatically place you on the Standard Repayment Plan, but you can request a different repayment plan at any time. If you aren檛 sure which repayment plan best fits your needs, visit for more information. It also important to communicate with your student loan servicer and let them know if you need help in repayment. You can find out who your servicer is through the National Student Loan Data System for Students by selecting 淔inancial Aid Review.� or by logging into your studentaid.gov account they should be noted on your home dashboard.
