Your eligibility for federal financial aid is determined by the information that you reported on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The FAFSA Submission Summary (FSS) you received from the federal processor (Federal Student Aid) is generated from the FAFSA. Review your FSS carefully for next steps, corrections that must be made, or documentation you must submit to the Financial Aid Office to finalize your financial aid for the 2024-2045 aid year.

Federal regulations require students attend the classes for which aid is awarded. Eligibility for federal student aid is based on your enrollment status for the term in which you are enrolled. Faculty will record attendance within the first few weeks of a course. Attendance is defined by physical attendance or participation in an academically related activity such as submission of an assignment, participation in group or online discussion. Students who register for courses but do NOT attend or participate will be recorded as Not Attending. You may only receive funding for only those classes you actually attend. You will be administratively dropped from any course where attendance cannot be demonstrated and your financial aid will be re-evaluated accordingly. Please visit Enrollment Verification for details.

Your financial aid award is based on your anticipated enrollment and living arrangements for the academic year, as reported on your FAFSA. Notify the Financial Aid Office of any changes in your enrollment and/or housing status. Most types of aid require that you enroll in a minimum of six credits, which is half-time status. You must submit a Financial Aid Change Request form to the Financial Aid Office if your living arrangements change (e.g., you expected to live in the residence halls but you will actually be commuting). These changes may result in cancellation or adjustment of your awards.

Your Cost of Attendance (COA), as shown on your Award Offer tab of your Pace Portal, are estimates. Room charges will vary depending on room type, building and/or number of students in each room. The fees listed will also vary by program and course type. Any changes to your COA will result in changes to your aid eligibility.

Academic progress for scholarship/merit awards and financial aid eligibility is reviewed annually after the completion of the spring semester. Students who start in the spring will only have one semester before academic progress is conducted.

Students who are not making academic progress at the close of the spring semester, but who take additional classes during the summer sessions at Pace, will have their academic progress reviewed again at the end of the summer, upon request by submitting a Satisfactory Academic Progress Appeal form.

All financial aid recipients must maintain satisfactory academic progress and program pursuit as specified in the �鶹��ý catalog to receive aid in subsequent years.
