**** New for 2012-2013! ****
Students who
are selected for verification for 2012-2013 please check your WINS To Do List
for requested documentation. Several forms have been changed and added.
Please note we are no longer able to accept copies of Federal Income Tax
Returns. IRS Tax Return Transcripts (if requested) obtained directly from the
IRS will be the only acceptable documentation. Refer to the
Verification
section of our website for instructions on obtaining a Tax Return Transcript.
Award Notifications for 2012-2013. If you have received your Award Notification for 2012-2013, please note
that you have three weeks to accept or decline your aid. Students who have taken no action
related to their financial aid offer within the three-week timeframe will have their offer canceled. We
may not be able to reinstate all types
of aid that were originally offered. (The Parent PLUS Loan does not fall under the three week deadline.)
New for Grad Students for 2012-2013. As of July 1, 2012, graduate students
will no longer be eligible for the
Subsidized Direct Loan. Full-Time Graduate students are eligible for up to a maximum of
$20,500 in Direct Loans for the academic year, including the summer session.
Summer Applications are now available under the Online Forms section
for 2011-2012.
The 2012-2013 FAFSA is now available. Go to
www.fafsa.gov to complete your
application by the priority date of March 1. As of February 1,
students and parents can use the
IRS
Data Retrieval Tool to import data directly from the IRS.
First-time Subsidized and Unsubsidized Direct Loan borrowers, remember
to complete your Entrance
Counseling.
If you are required to sign a Master Promissory Note, you will receive
an email and/or letter with instructions. Students awarded a Perkins
Loan should remember this is a separate promissory note from the Direct
Loans.
