Summer Financial Aid

Summer financial aid is not automatically awarded to students.  You must request summer financial aid by completing a Summer Loan Request Form.  There is no institutional aid for summer sessions, only loans if you are enrolled at least 1/2 time.

If you will be taking summer courses and are enrolled at least half-time (6 hours for an undergraduate or 3 hours for a graduate level), you may be eligible for Federal Direct Loans. 

• Make sure you have filed your FAFSA for the current academic year. We will need this information to process your loan.
• The amount of loan you request may not be the amount you receive. You are limited to a semester's worth of a Federal Direct Loan as long as it fits within your cost of attendance budget for summer.

If you are not enrolled at least half-time, you may consider taking a Private Alternative Loan to pay for your class. Visit our Private Alternative Loan page for more information on Private Loans.
