Financial Aid

As each individual is different we encourage you to visit the Office of Financial Aid page to explore the types of aid available. 

Eligibility for need-based grants, loans, and scholarships is determined by completing a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form. Many funds are limited, so those students who have their FAFSA completed by March 1 of each academic year receive priority processing.  

Applicants must have been admitted to the program before The University of Arizona Office of Student Financial Aid (OSFA) will make financial aid awards. Graduate students must be enrolled at least halftime in order to receive federal loans. 

Admitted students may apply for scholarships in Scholarship Universe, our scholarship-matching tool. Scholarship Universe connects Wildcats to millions of dollars in internal and external scholarships. 

Additional scholarship information is available via the Scholarships & Financial Aid website. Information regarding financial aid for online programs can be found by visiting the Aid page for Arizona Online.
