Financial Aid Dates

Aid Lock Date: For financial aid purposes, your official enrollment status is determined by the number of credit hours for which you are enrolled on the aid census date. Therefore, the addition of coursework after the census date will not increase your aid. For an initial registration after the lock date, your award will be calculated and locked simultaneously. Failure to participate in a class may change your enrollment status and result in a reduction of awards.
