Receiving your Offer Letter
The University of Utah will automatically receive an electronic copy of your application
information, as long as you listed our institution as one of your choices on your
FAFSA. The application review process begins in March of the processing year. Once
you are an admitted student, we will begin determining your eligibility for Federal
and State aid programs. If it is determined that additional information is needed
you will be notified by email to your Umail account. Once your file is complete, you
will be notified of your eligibility to receive aid. Qualified applicants receive
a Conditional Financial Aid Notification (Award Letter) with information about the
amount and kinds of financial aid offered, as well as procedures for accepting the
aid. You may also view the Offer Letter through the Campus Information Services. If you don't yet have access to UMail or CIS, please contact our office directly
for information on your file.
Completing your Offer
Once awards are made, you will receive an email through your Umail account with instructions
to complete your conditional offer letter online. If you choose to complete a paper
offerletter, we ask you to print the award letter, complete the necessary information,
and mail or fax it to the UOSFA.
- Financial aid is disbursed through the Income Accounting office (Bursar's office). Disbursements will pay allowable charges first. Disbursements normally begin the first week of each term, and occur 2-3 times a week throughout the term.
- The remaining credit after allowable charges have been paid is released as a refund in the form of a a paper check and sent via US mail. Students may opt for Direct Deposit to speed the process.
- To sign up for direct deposit, the student must complete the “Direct Deposit Authorization” form through Campus Information Services (CIS). The student will need the bank account and routing number to complete this form.
- Direct deposits can take 48 to 72 hours for the funds to become available
Send any required Missing Information
Award notifications are sent early in the processing cycle, to allow the student to
budget for the academic year. However, as processing continues, the award may be subject
to change. You will be informed of any award changes which may occur, as well as the
reason for those changes by postcard and/ or Umail.
Complete Entrance Counseling
You must complete entrance counseling before your school can make the first disbursement
of your loan.
Complete Master Promissory Notes (MPN), if necessary
The MPN is a legally binding agreement between you and us and contains the terms and
conditions of your loans.
Make sure your tuition is paid before the deadline.
Students are required to pay any outstanding balance on tuition and fees by the deadline set by the Income Accounting Office.
Exit Counseling
If you have received a loan during your college career, you are required to complete loan exit counseling before you withdraw, graduate, or drop below half-time attendance (regardless if you plan to transfer to another school). The counseling session helps guide you in managing your student loans after college.
