Dear Student:
Financing your education is one of the most important issues you and your family face. At the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, the Financial Aid Services Office is ready to work with you to help ensure success in your University financing plans.
We are pleased to provide you with this information as a means of explaining the wide variety of financial aid programs and services offered through Federal, State, and University sources. Many students receive financial assistance at UMass Dartmouth including grants and scholarships (which do not have to be repaid), loans (most repaid at low interest rates after graduation), and student employment (giving you the opportunity to gain valuable experience in a University job).
In addition, the University has established the University Enrollment Center, a convenient "one-stop" office to answer questions and complete transactions concerning registration, billing, and financial aid.
The Financial Aid Services Office remains committed to providing you with excellent customer service, timely delivery of information, and sensitivity to your individual financial concerns. We are also pleased to act as your financial aid resource and information center. We look forward to helping you achieve your educational goals.
Sincerely,
Bruce H. Palmer
Director Financial Aid Services
