*This is a general outline to help you organize your financial aid paperwork. If you have any questions, please call or e-mail us (see Financial Aid homepage for numbers and addresses).

January 3 - You can begin to fill out your FAFSA form for the following academic year; it is recommended that EVERYONE fills out a FAFSA; see our How To... page for more information.

March 15- By now, our office has begun to award students for the upcoming fall term; have you filled out the FAFSA, VTAG, and/or Methodist forms yet?

April 15 - Federal income taxes due by this date; if you originally filled out your FAFSA using estimated tax return information, you may want to correct your FAFSA using your Student Aid Report (S.A.R.).

May 31 - United Methodist form due to our office, if applicable.

June 1 - If your financial aid does not cover all costs, you should contact the Student Accounts Office (540) 678-4476, to inquire about the Shenandoah University Payment Plan Application Agreement - allowing you to make 4 equal payments per term, rather than paying your tuition in full at the beginning of each semester.

June 15 - Deferred Payment Plan Application due to Student Accounts Office if participating.

July 1 - If you have received all of your financial aid paperwork (award letter, verification forms, loan promissory notes, etc.), have you returned them **signed and completed** to our office? Please do not delay your financial aid by neglecting to fill out the forms we send you. We never send junk mail!

July 31 - Virginia Tuition Assistance Grant (VTAG) application due.

August 15 - Fall tuition is due.  Any remaining balances, after financial aid is taken into account, needs to be paid by this date.
