Summer Financial Aid

~ What You Should Know ~

Summer financial aid is awarded from the 2007-2008 FAFSA application and is considered part of the 2007-2008 academic year at MSU-Billings.

If you’ve already been awarded financial aid through MSU-Billings during the current aid year (2007-2008):

• Once you’ve registered for ALL your summer credits, give a copy of your summer schedule to the financial aid office.
• Make note on the schedule if you are interested in loans, work study, or both. We will first attempt to award grants but funding is limited.
• Available summer funding depends on the types and amount of assistance used during fall and spring.
• Once you’ve been awarded, you’ll receive an email indicating you have a revised award letter available through your student secure log-in.
• You do NOT need to respond to the email or the award.
• Notify our office immediately if you do NOT want any portion of the summer aid listed.
• Please let us know if you have any questions with regard to the procedure for summer funding.

If summer is your first semester at MSU-Billings, or if you have not received financial aid for fall and/or spring:

• If you have not already done so, go to www.fafsa.ed.gov, and complete the 2007-2008 application.
• If you HAVE completed a 2007-2008 FAFSA but have not had the information sent to MSU-Billings, add our school code (002530) to your FAFSA through the ‘add or delete a school code’ option at www.fafsa.ed.gov.
• You will receive notification via email once you’ve been awarded, instructing you to respond to your award offer through your student secure log-in. If you accept a student loan, additional requirements can be completed through www.msubillings.edu/finaid/loans.htm.

~ Please notify our office if your course schedule changes. ~
Any added or dropped credits may require an adjustment to your award.
