Financial Aid FAQs

What Do I Do About Housing and Expenses if I Am Going To Use the 2026–2027 FAFSA® for Spring 2026 Semester?


The federal government is not yet ready to disburse funds from the 2026-2027 FAFSA®.

You will need to plan to pay your housing and expenses out of pocket until they can release funds. Once funded, you can reimburse yourself with your aid by signing up for E-Refund. If you have concerns, please come talk to us in the Financial Aid Office.
