Review and Accept Financial Aid

Financial Aid is an integral part of the college application process. Radford University uses the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to determine your eligibility for financial aid programs. All students who are interested in receiving financial aid must complete and submit the FAFSA to Radford University. Radford University’s school code is 003732.

When awarding financial aid, we place priority on students that meet our March 1 priority filing deadline. FAFSAs will continue to be accepted and processed after this date; however, aid will be awarded only as available. If you would like to learn more about financial aid at Radford University, we encourage you to visit the Financial Aid website.

Once Radford University receives the information submitted on your FAFSA, we may follow up with requests for additional documentation. When your financial aid application is complete, we create an award package for you that’s visible through OneCampus. This award package details any grants, loans or work study programs for which you’re eligible. Below, we’ve outlined how to check your financial aid award and how to accept any (or all) parts of your award. It is extremely important that all students accept or decline their financial aid awards no later than May 1. Any awards not accepted by May 1 may be redistributed to other students with financial need.
