Applying for Financial Aid<\/h2>\n

Where can I view my financial-aid information?
\n<\/strong>Through myUCF <\/a>you can view items on your to-do list, due charges, and loan, grant and scholarship offers.<\/p>\n

Where should I look for help before reaching out to the Office of Student Financial Assistance?
\n<\/strong>In general, you should check your email and myUCF account and complete any items on your to-do list<\/a>. If you have successfully completed the financial aid process, including confirmation of academic activity during the first week for each of your courses, you can expect your approved aid to be disbursed during the second week of classes.<\/p>\n
