Financial Aid<br />
Financial Aid - Traditional Undergraduate Program<br />
We believe that your education is an investment in your future and our goal is to assist you in any way possible with the cost <strong>of</strong><br />
that investment. Therefore, <strong>William</strong> <strong>Jessup</strong> <strong>University</strong> participates in federal, state and institutional programs designed to help<br />
you fill the gap between the cost <strong>of</strong> your education and your ability to pay.<br />
Application Procedures and Deadlines<br />
Students are required to apply for financial aid each year to qualify for federal, state and need-based institutional money. The Free<br />
Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) must be completed to determine eligibility for federal grants, loans, state aid and<br />
need-based institutional aid. If a student does not wish to utilize any funds from these categories, please notify the Financial Aid<br />
Office that you are waiving your right to file the FAFSA. In addition to the FAFSA application, certain institutional awards will<br />
require additional applications specific to those awards.<br />
Federal Deadline: A student may apply for federal funds at any time during the year by filling out the FAFSA (see additional details<br />
in State Deadlines below). However, payment <strong>of</strong> your charges is required before enrollment, so it is encouraged to apply early so<br />
your eligibility can be factored into your total outstanding charges.<br />
State Deadline (for Cal Grants): Students must submit the FAFSA (or the renewal FAFSA for continuing students) and the GPA<br />
Verification Form postmarked on or before the March 2 deadline in order to be considered for Cal Grant for the following year.<br />
Institutional Priority Deadline: The priority deadline for institutional aid is May 1 for enrollment in the Fall Semester and<br />
December 1 for enrollment in the Spring Semester. Institutional aid funds are limited by availability. If funds run out, late<br />
applicants may not be eligible for institutional aid.<br />
The following is a simple explanation <strong>of</strong> how to apply for financial aid at <strong>William</strong> <strong>Jessup</strong> <strong>University</strong>:<br />
1. Complete the FAFSA at www.fafsa.ed.gov. WJU’s school code is 001281.<br />

corrections that need to be made. Your FAFSA information is sent electronically to WJU.<br />
3. Upon your acceptance to WJU, you may receive a letter from the Financial Aid Office requesting additional documents for a<br />

Financial Aid Office.<br />
6. If you indicate you will be taking out a student loan, you will need to complete Entrance Loan Counseling, select a lender and<br />
