Q. How do I find out if my child is eligible for financial aid?
A. To be considered for student aid (grants, loans, work study) students must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Some University and private scholarships may also require a completed FAFSA. We recommend that first-year freshmen and their parents submit the FAFSA by mid February. Each year returning students should fill out a FAFSA by mid April.

Q. If we own a house in Pennsylvania, are we eligible for in-state tuition?
A. To qualify for in-state tuition, your family needs to reside in Pennsylvania. Owning a house in Pennsylvania alone does not qualify a student for PA residency tuition. To change your child's status from ou-of-state to in-state, you will need proof of residency, including PA income tax and Federal income tax forms for the most current year.
