Financial Aid Award Packages

How do I apply for a financial aid award package?

Start by filling out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The FAFSA can be completed at www.fafsa.gov. The University of Northwestern's institutional code for FAFSA is 002371. Please explore the FAFSA site to determine your eligibility.

What do I do after I have received a financial aid award package from the Financial Aid Office?

If you have received a financial aid award package from us, your next steps are to accept/decline your loan offers.

To accept a loan offered on your Award Letter follow these instructions:

  1. Log on to theRock and select "Finances" tab
  2. Select "Financial Aid Awards" link, then select the Aid Year, and Submit
  3. Select "Accept Award Offer" tab to accept, change amount, or decline any of the loans offered
  4. Complete additional loan requirements defined below if they apply to you.

If you are accepting the Federal DL Loan (Subsidized and/or Unsubsidized) at Northwestern, you must go to https://studentloans.gov ‐ Login with FSA ID, select and complete both "Complete Loan Counseling (Entrance)" and "Complete Loan Agreement (Master Promissory Note)".

What could delay a financial aid award package?

If you have not received a financial aid award package from us, it may be for one of the following reasons:

  • Northwestern has not received your completed Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). You should receive an award package from us within one to two weeks of Northwestern’s receipt of your FAFSA.
  • Your FAFSA was chosen by the federal government for a process called ‘verification.’ If this is the case, the Financial Aid Office sent you a letter explaining what you need to complete for the ‘verification’ process. Please contact the Financial Aid Office with any questions.
  • Your FAFSA was received by Northwestern, but there is a ‘hold’ on the FAFSA because of an error or because the Financial Aid Office requires additional information from you. If this is the case, the Financial Aid Office contacted you by email to explain what was needed. Please contact the Financial Aid Office if you have any questions.
    • You do not intend to complete the FAFSA. Financial aid award packets are not sent to students who will not be completing the FAFSA. FAFSA is not required to receive Northwestern scholarships. Your Northwestern scholarships will automatically be applied to your student account at the beginning of the semester. You will receive half of the scholarship award in fall and the other half in spring

    Am I eligible to receive financial aid during my time as a Dual Enrollment student?

    Online and on-site Dual Enrollment (PSEO & Early College) students are not eligible to receive financial aid for any term as a Dual Enrollment student. However, if you are interested in continuing at UNWSP after high school you will most likely apply for financial aid during your senior year of high school. You are welcome to visit our Financial Aid page or contact them for additional information.

    How do I contact the Financial Aid office?

    Financial Aid is located on the first floor of Nazareth Hall (N1110, see campus map). They are open Monday‐Friday 8:00‐4:30.
