Summer Aid

Undergraduate Financial Aid

While some of our standard financial aid options are unavailable during summer quarters, we do offer limited aid opportunities for students who opt to take听summer classes. If you apply by the priority deadline and meet eligibility requirements, you'll have the option to receive a comparable amount of merit- and need-based aid as you would each quarter during the academic year.
