Your first action should be to complete a Free
Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and include Clemson
University school code (003425) in it so that our office will receive
your information. The Department of Education will determine your
Estimated Family Contribution (EFC) using the information supplied
on the FAFSA. The FAFSA can be completed on-line at www.fafsa.ed.gov.
You should submit the FAFSA as soon as possible
after January 1 each year. In order to be considered for need-based
scholarships, the processor must receive your completed FAFSA by
March 1. The priority deadline for the Federal Supplemental Grant,
Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Work-Study and South Carolina Need-Based
Grant is April 1. April 1 is also the suggested deadline to apply
for the Federal Pell Grant and Federal Stafford Loan. You do
not have to be accepted for admissions first to apply for financial
aid.
Once the required information is received your
Financial Aid award will be "packaged" and sent to you
in an award letter.
Entering freshmen are automatically considered
for Academic Recruiting Scholarships if the admissions process is
completed by December 31. Continuing undergraduate students are
also automatically considered for University scholarships.
