Due to the delays related to the launch of the 2024-2025 FAFSA, updates/corrections by institutions are not yet available per the Dept. of Education. Thus, financial aid decisions regarding appeals and updates due to verification will be delayed and take longer than normal.
Be sure to select the documents that apply to the appropriate academic year.
Documents containing Personally Identifiable Information, such as social security numbers and mailing addresses, should be uploaded to Cardinal Students, not emailed. Learn more about uploading documents.
Federal law requires that financial aid documents be hand-signed. Learn more about signing by hand electronically. Typed, computer-generated, or security certificate-based signatures are NOT ACCEPTED.
