How to Apply for Financial Assistance
|
|
| 1. |
Financial Assistance is awarded on a first-come, first-served basis. The priority deadline at Cumberland University is February 1. Students filing applications after that date will be considered on a funds-available basis. The student must apply and be accepted for admission to Cumberland University. All applicants must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The FAFSA can be completed and submitted on the internet at www.FAFSA.gov. To complete the form, students should refer to their personal and/or parents' Federal income tax returns for the preceding year. Assistance in completing the forms is available through the Office of Student Financial Services. |
| 2. |
Due to changes in Federal guidelines and individual financial status, students must reapply each year. |
