How to Apply
We know applying for financial aid can sometimes feel a bit overwhelming - and you do need to apply each year - so we try to make the process as easy as possible. If you're a current Concordia student, here's how you get started:
1. Complete and submit the FAFSA: Free Application for Federal Student Aid annually after Jan. 1. Concordia's FAFSA code is 002346.
2. Keep a copy of both your and your parents’ Federal Income Tax Returns.
3. Go to the Financial Aid Student Portal to review your information and check the status of your application for 2008-09. For 2009-10, you will be reviewing this via C-Port.
4. Report any external scholarships to the Office of Financial Aid. You will be reporting external scholarships for 2009-10 via C-Port.
5. Submit further information and/or documents that have been requested by the Financial Aid Office.
6. Maintain acceptable academic progress.
7. Review your award letter and contact the Office of Financial Aid with any questions.
Other Helpful Information
Half of your awarded financial aid will be credited to your account each semester. Work study earnings will be paid directly to you.
If your family resources become strained, contact the Financial Aid Office about supplemental loan programs. If your financial situation is substantially worse, you may choose to appeal your financial aid.
Concordia retains the right to revise the aid package if other resources or external financial aid become available or the financial information originally submitted is incorrect. The college will also increase the aid package if unusual circumstances merit the change and if funds are still available.
