Financial Assistance

Student Financial Support

For qualified students, financial aid assistance is offered through USU Student Financial Support.

For qualified on-campus full-time* students, financial aid assistance is offered through the U.S. Government and the USU Financial Aid Office. To qualify for federal student loans and financial aid packages, students must submit a FAFSA, Free Application for Federal Student Aid. Students are encouraged to apply for government aid after they are admitted to the MMIS program.

* Financial Assistance is not available for Online program students.

Assistantships

A limited number of teaching assistantships (which do not include tuition or fee waivers) and scholarships are available to outstanding students and are awarded on a competitive basis. TA positions are typically given out in the second semester. Students who apply by March 1 will have priority consideration for these awards.
