Costs and Financial Aid

Financial Aid


The University of Arizona offers a variety of financial aid, including scholarships and loan opportunities. Most students are eligible to receive sufficient financial assistance to cover direct and indirect educational expenses.  Typically, financial aid packages combine two or more of the following types of aid:



Information about available scholarships is posted on the Arizona Law website at   http://www.law.arizona.edu/current_students/financial_aid/uascholarships.cfm .  In order to apply for most types of financial aid, students must submit a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), which is available online at www.fafsa.ed.gov.  The priority processing date for a FAFSA is March 1.  In order to meet this deadline, students should submit their completed FAFSA by mid-February.


Emergency Loans 


Under special circumstances, students may borrow money on a short-term basis from the University of Arizona.  These short-term loans cannot exceed a set amount (typically $750), and must be repaid no later than the end of the semester in which the loan is granted, unless the loan agreement expressly provides otherwise.  In no event shall a short-term loan be extended beyond a student's graduation date.


GI Benefits

 

Educational benefits are available for eligible veterans.  For more information, contact the Veterans Services Office, Modern Languages, Room 347, Tucson, AZ 85721, (520) 621-9501, veterans@email.arizona.edu.
