Students who apply for federal loans receive their financial aid award letters via mail within two to four weeks of FAFSA submission. Notification times for private education loans vary by lender.

Financial Aid Options
Direct Unsubsidized Loans are available to undergraduate and graduate students; there is no requirement to demonstrate financial need.
*These federal student loan options are managed directly by the US Department of Education (ED)


Graduate or Professional Student Annual Loan Limit: $20,500

*Online master’s degrees are significantly discounted compared to campus rates. Due to these lower tuition fees, the financial aid options are more limited.

Leave of Absence Impact on Financial Aid

Students on a leave of absence pursuant to the Leave of Absence Policy are considered to be withdrawn from the University for purposes of financial aid. Consequently, loan repayment obligations may be triggered. Students should speak to a representative of the Financial Aid Office for more detailed information about the status of their financial aid during a leave of absence prior to submitting a Leave of Absence Application.

Veteran Benefits

Eligible veteran students can receive tuition benefits offered by the GI Bill®.
