A Guide to Receiving and Processing Your Financial Aid

Applying for Financial Aid

You will need to apply for federal financial aid every year by applying for the FAFSA. We encourage students to apply as soon as possible. October 1st is the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) filing begin date for the next academic year. If you are currently receiving federal financial aid, you will receive a FAFSA Renewal Reminder sent by the federal processor to the email address reported on your FAFSA. This will provide information to you on applying for aid for the next academic year. You can complete your FAFSA by going on-line to www.studentaid.gov. Mount Marty University’s priority filing date for the FAFSA is March 1. Feel free to contact the Financial Aid Office with any questions on the federal application process.

Please read and review the Financial Aid Guide for information on receiving and processing your financial aid:

      1. Make sure to accept or reject each aid item on your award.
      2. Complete and submit an Employment Application electronically if you have been awarded work-study.
      3. First-time borrowers at Mount Marty University must complete the Loan Entrance Counseling and the Master Promissory Note. Parent PLUS (Parent Loans for Undergraduate Students) borrowers will need to complete a Federal Direct Parent PLUS Application and also a Master Promissory Note.

By accepting your financial aid, you are certifying that you have read and understood the Financial Aid Guide, agree to comply with the terms, conditions and policies governing any financial aid you receive and will need to maintain Satisfactory Academic Progress in order to remain eligible for financial aid. Your financial award may be adjusted due to a change in enrollment status, residency status, the receipt of additional resources, verification, or oversight.
