Applying for Financial Aid

Applying for Financial Aid

Listed below are the basic steps you need to complete to be considered for aid at UHD.

Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). You can do the paper application or do it online at www.fafsa.ed.gov . Be sure to list the UHD school code in Step 6. Our Title IV school code is 003612. When your FAFSA is processed, the OSFA will receive your Student Aid Report (SAR) data electronically. It is not necessary to turn in your paper Student Aid Report. We need the electronic document (called the "ISIR"), so if you did not initially list UHD, you may add our code by calling 800-433-3243. We should receive your ISIR in approximately two weeks.

Apply for admission and be admitted as a regular student to UHD – Most financial aid is limited, so we will not award you any aid until you have admitted to UHD. Students admitted as "Transient" are not eligible for financial aid at UHD.

Post-baccalaureate students must provide the PB Certification Form and a copy of your degree plan showing number of the hours remaining to earn your degree or certification.

In addition, if you are a transfer student you must provide to the Admissions and Records Office copies of academic transcripts from all other colleges or universities attended. The OSFA cannot process your application until all required transcripts have been received.

These represent the MINIMUM application requirements. You'll need to provide more information if your application is selected for verification.
