Applying for Financial Aid

Steps to Submitting Financial Aid Applications

1. Fill out the Free Application for Financial Student Aid (FAFSA). It is available online at www.fafsa.gov.

Thomas University School Code: 001555

Be sure to complete the correct FAFSA application for the corresponding academic year you plan to enroll. The FAFSA must be completed each academic year to be considered for most types of financial aid including Stafford loans.

2013-2014 FAFSA (August 2013 -- July 2014): Use the 2012 Federal tax return.

NOTE: Estimated tax information will delay awarding of financial aid. If estimated numbers are used, you must make corrections later to your FAFSA when updated information is available.

Also, make sure you enter your full address (street address, apartment number, and P.O. box if applicable) on all paperwork.

If your Student Aid Report (processed FAFSA results) indicates you were selected for verification, our office will contact you via e-mail or postcard to let you know what additional documents are needed.
