How to Apply
- Apply to Shenandoah University.
Contact the Office of Admissions to apply
to Shenandoah University. Financial aid is not awarded until a student
has been accepted to the university. However, if necessary, an estimate
of aid available from Shenandoah can be made. The student’s application
for admission will be used for consideration for forms of Shenandoah
financial aid such as the Academic Scholarship and the Presidential
Scholarship.
- Complete
the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
The FAFSA is updated every year by the U.S. Department of Education
and is available for the upcoming academic year after January 1. The
FAFSA is filed on-line at
www.fafsa.ed.gov. The FAFSA will be used to determine eligibility
for aid such as grants, federal student and parent loans, and work-study.
An estimate of federal aid can be found at the following website: www.fafsa4caster.ed.gov.
It is strongly recommended to sign the FAFSA on-line by using the
U.S. Department of Education PIN . The signature PIN can be obtained
at www.pin.ed.gov.
Both the student and their parent (if applicable) can obtain a PIN.
To ensure Shenandoah University receives your FAFSA, be sure to list
our Federal School Code: 003737.
- Complete any applicable grant or scholarship applications.
Certain forms of financial aid at Shenandoah University have separate
applications other than the FAFSA. It is important to ensure these forms
are submitted to the Financial Aid Office prior to their due date. For
example, the application for the Virginia
Tuition Assistance Grant (VTAG) is due July 31, while the Virginia
Conference United Methodist Scholarship application is due May 31.
Once we have received the results of your FAFSA and you have been
admitted as a degree-seeking student into Shenandoah University, we
will begin the process of determining your eligibility for financial
aid. You will receive materials at your home address which must be
completed and returned to the Financial Aid Office as quickly as possible.
Delays in returning these materials to our office could adversely
affect the availability of your financial aid.
