It is necessary to reapply for financial assistance, including
loans and employment, each year. Reapplication forms for the
upcoming academic year are made available on this website
each February. If the student is currently receiving need-based aid or federal or institutional loans, a reminder to reapply for
the upcoming academic year will be sent out to both the student and the parents
in mid-February. Families who are unable to access the forms
online should contact the Office
of Financial Aid for assistance.
The Financial Aid Office is using a service offered by the College Board for collecting tax returns. Upon completion of the CSS Profile, families will receive instructions to submit taxes, W-2s and a verification worksheet to the College Board IDOC Service. These instructions will not be sent until after the CSS Profile has been completed. When mailing the requested items to IDOC they must be accompanied by a cover sheet that can be printed from the College Board website. The documents will be scanned into the College Board's secure environment and made available only to the University for viewing. Once the processing year is over, the College Board will destroy all paper documents submitted. This service will provide enhanced security for personal financial data and increased efficiency for our department. Please do not send tax forms to the Office of Financial Aid.
