How to Apply For Financial Aid
Step 1
Complete the online Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). You will need to use SNU's school code 003149. Once your have completed the FAFSA and it has been processed by the Department of Education, your information will be forwarded to the Financial Aid Office (FAO) at SNU.
Step 2
Once SNU receives your FAFSA information, we may need additional paperwork, such as a Verification Worksheet and tax information. We will contact you by the email address you listed on the FAFSA if we need this additional paperwork. While waiting for additional paperwork, a Preliminary Award Letter will be sent to your email address.
Step 3
After all paperwork is complete, the FAO will determine your final financial aid eligibility. We will send you an Official Award Letter to the email address listed on the FAFSA. Please log in, view the award letter and accept or decline the awards listed.
Step 4
If you accepted student or parent loans on your award letter, please complete the loan application as directed by the award letter. Students will need to complete the Stafford Entrance Counseling as directed by the award letter before the loan can be approved.
