NEED BASED FINANCIAL AID

Students who wish to apply for need-based financial aid should submit Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to the Department of Education and include Allen University’s school code #003417.

The FAFSA is used to determine a student’s eligibility for Federal Pell Grants, Federal Supplemental Education Opportunity Grants, South Carolina Need-Based Grants, Federal Student Loans and Federal Work-Study.  It should be filed after January 1.  Although the Financial Aid Office processes applications for financial aid throughout the course of the academic year, students who file the FAFSA by April 15 receive priority consideration for assistance.

All need-based financial awards are made annually, and students must re-apply each year in order to be considered for assistance.
