Financial Aid Tips
As a financial aid recipient, the student should...
- read all materials sent to him/her.
- apply for financial aid in a timely manner.
- complete all financial aid forms completely and
accurately.
- follow directions when completing financial aid forms.
The above tips are simple yet important for all students that
receive financial aid. By following these steps, you may be able to
eliminate some of the complexity of the financial aid process.
These basic tips will also help you receive the quickest and best
service provided by financial aid staff. The Office of Financial
Aid realizes that the financial aid process can be complex. There
are many outside entities imposing regulations to ensure that the
students are treated in a fair and equitable manner. Butler
University and the Office of Financial Aid have an obligation to
comply with on-going changes in the federal regulations. For this
reason, the method by which a student applies and/or receives
financial aid may change several times during his/her college
career. We encourage you to check back to this site for the most up
to date information on the policies that affect your financial aid
eligibility.
Any application materials or documents for scholarships or
financial aid submitted by the student and his or her family become
the property of the university and a permanent record of the Office
of Financial Aid. The Office of Financial Aid is responsible for
compliance with university, federal and state regulations and
guidelines.
