Making College Affordable for Everyone
More than 95 percent of University of Saint Francis students receive financial aid. Students receive assistance from federal, state and university sources in the form of grants, loans and scholarships.

The Office of Financial Aid at the University of Saint Francis administers financial aid from federal, state, institutional, and private resources according to the Federal guidelines provided by the U.S. Department of Education. The university works with students and families in determining available funds to help meet the cost of education at the University of Saint Francis.

The philosophy of student financial aid is based on the rationale that the student and family, where applicable, are the primary resource in funding the student's education. Each student's situation is evaluated through the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Once the application is completed and evaluated by the U.S. Department of Education, the expected family contribution (EFC) is determined. University of Saint Francis in turn will use the calculated EFC to determine available funding from federal, state, and institutional resources. An aid package may include a combination of scholarships and/or grants, educational loans and student employment. The EFC is an index number used to determine eligibility rather than what the student's bill will actually be.

Financial aid awards are based on the information submitted by the student and family, academic records, the date of the application, and fund availability.
