Financial Aid Deadline

Everyone in the region is excited about the inch or so of snow that we got over night, but I have a something serious to share.

This is serious.


There's a hard and fast deadline for financial aid this year at UVa. 
You must submit all financial aid documents by Friday, March 1st.

I'm happy to say that admission and financial aid are separate at UVa, so whether you file for financial aid or not isn't a factor when we review applications.  Your finances are between you and Student Financial Services.

If you're interested is learning more about the financial aid process, check out the SFS website, the financial aid Twitter feed, and the financial aid Facebook page.

Now, back to playing in the snow!
