Corsair Shadow Day - two students talking

Corsair Shadow Days

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.

For accepted students

Corsair Shadow Days offer you the opportunity to get an up-close look at life at UMassD from a student's perspective. Shadow Day is invitation only, once you are accepted, look out for an email to come and hope to see you at Shadow Day. 

Here's what you will do

  • attend up to 2 classes
  • explore campus
  • interact with current UMassD students, faculty, and staff
  • enjoy a free lunch at The Grove

For parents & guardians

While your students are with their hosts, parents/guardians are welcome to register for a traditional campus tour or explore campus on your own.

May we suggest

  • the award-winning Claire T. Carney Library
  • Charlton College of Business Technology Center
