Your first action should be to complete a Free
Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and include Clemson
University school code (003425) in it so that we receive your information.
The Department of Education will determine your Estimated Family
Contribution (EFC) using the information supplied on the FAFSA.
The FAFSA can be completed on-line at www.fafsa.ed.gov.
You should submit the FAFSA as soon as possible after January 1 each year. In order to be considered for need-based scholarships, the processor must receive your completed FAFSA by February 15. The priority deadline for the Federal Supplemental Grant, Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Work-Study and South Carolina Need-Based Grant is April 1. April 1 is also the suggested deadline to apply for the Federal Pell Grant and Federal Stafford Loan. You do not have to be accepted for admissions first to apply for financial aid.
Once the required information is received your Financial Aid award will be "packaged" and sent to you.
Entering freshmen are automatically considered for Academic Recruiting Scholarships if the admissions process is completed by December 31. Freshmen who apply for admission by March 1 will automatically receive a financial aid information packet in the mail. Those who apply later need to request this from our office. Continuing undergraduate students are also automatically considered for University scholarships.
