Summer 2014 Financial Aid
If you plan to take courses at UConn during the 2014 summer session and wish to be considered for financial aid, you must:
- Enroll for summer courses; most forms of aid require that you enroll on at least a half time basis
- Have completed a 2013-2014 FAFSA
- Complete a summer financial aid application (available via the Student Administration System by February 24)
We expect to begin awarding financial aid for summer in early April. Please be aware that financial aid for the summer is limited, and is based on your remaining annual eligibility of Federal Pell Grant and Federal Direct Stafford Loan for the 2013-2014 Award Year. Please note that other financing options, such as Plus and Alternative loans are available for the Summer. Details can be found on our website at http://financialaid.uconn.edu/
