Financial aid awards for fall 2024

For the 2024-25 aid year, it will be easier for families to complete the FAFSA with the streamlined FAFSA application. UMassD anticipates sending first-year student awards letters in late April/early May. Returning students can still expect their initial award letters in late May/early June.

By offering your students invaluable guidance, you play an important role in their college searches. We’d like to partner with you in your students’ success, providing useful resources and information about available opportunities at UMassD.
