Continuing Students - Canadian and Mexican

2012-2013 Application Process for Continuing Students

Continuing students must reapply for financial aid each academic year. The deadline for continuing students to submit All Financial Aid Application Materials is May 5th, 2012.

Late financial aid applicants may be penalized by having some of their Columbia grant eligibility replaced by additional work. If you have extenuating circumstances that will delay completion of your financial aid application, please contact your financial aid advisor before May 5 to request a deadline extension.

Students may check the status of their application materials online via SSOL Financial Aid System Online. Continuing student award letters will not be available until July, 2012.

Please include our COVER SHEET with all documents to insure proper coding and filling.
