Applying for Financial Aid

Financial aid can make the already affordable cost of attendance at Urshan College even easier on your pocketbook. In fact, if you use financial aid responsibly, you should be able to finish your degree without worrying about large education debts.

The financial aid application process is detailed in the steps below:

1. Complete the FAFSA online.

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is used to determine your student aid eligibility based on your personal and family situation. If you are a first-time user, you will be required to create an FSA ID.

There are two ways to complete the FAFSA form:

  • Visit the fafsa.gov website.
  • Use the myStudentAid app, which you can download from both the Apple App Store (iOS) and Google Play (Android).

When you complete the FAFSA, be sure to list Urshan College’s school code (Code: 042827)

2. Complete entrance counseling.

The loan interview assists the Financial Aid Office in determining the specific aid type and aid amounts you are requesting. The interview is required to be submitted every semester. Even if you are requesting “Pell Only”, completion of the loan interview is still required. This step is required to ensure you understand your borrower rights and responsibilities.

3. Complete the Master Promissory Note (MPN).

If you plan to use federal student loans, you will need to electronically complete and sign the MPN—a legal document that creates a contract between you and the lender to repay the loans. You will find the MPN at studentloans.gov.

4. Complete CampusIvy Student Registration

All students who plan on receiving aid are required to register on our financial aid database. This profile will allow you, as the student, to view your federal aid and apply for aid throughout your undergraduate career. If any additional documents are needed, this system will allow you to submit any supporting documentation. You can register here.

5. Review and Sign Funding Estimate

After completing the required steps above, you will receive your personalized funding estimate. This estimate will go over your eligible financial aid amounts for that given academic year. After reviewing your funding estimate, you will be prompted to digitally sign. Once signed and submitted, the Financial Aid Office will review, sign, and submit to the government for approval.
