Breaking News!

UPDATE January 29, 2025 - The White House budget office rescinded the order to temporarily pause all activities related to obligations or disbursement of federal financial assistance. The Office of Scholarships & Financial Aid plans to disburse authorized financial aid, including Pell Grants, SEOG Grants, and Direct Loans, beginning January 31 as originally planned. Work-Study awards are earned and then paid through the Payroll Office. If you have any questions about the status of your federal aid, please contact our office.

 

January 27, 2025 - The U.S. Department of Education is currently reviewing the full impact of the memo issued by the Office of Management and Budget on January 27, 2025, to temporarily pause federal financial assistance programs. Per the memo, the pause does not impact "assistance received directly by individuals." This includes Title IV, HEA funds (Pell Grants, SEOG Grants, Federal Work Study awards, and Direct Loans), which are provided to individual students.

The Office of Scholarships & Financial Aid will provide additional updates as they become available.
