How to Apply
Prospective freshman can apply for need-based financial aid by completing the FAFSA. The 2024-25 FAFSA will be available in December 2023. Students can apply for admission prior to completing the FAFSA. If you do not intend to apply for need-based financial aid, you do not need to complete a FAFSA and will only need to apply for admission to the college.
