Financial Aid Information
Students attending the Winter session may potentially be eligible for additional financial aid funding to assist with winter session costs if enrolled in the subsequent Spring semester at IUP. Any financial aid awarded as a result of attendance in the winter session will be paid to the student’s account during the Spring 2013 semester.
Students who are part-time, undergraduate students in the Spring 2013 semester (i.e., less than 12 credits in the Spring semester) and who are otherwise eligible for PHEAA State or Pell grant funding may be eligible for an increased grant(s). This will be automatically reviewed by the Financial Aid office at the completion of the drop/add period for the Spring semester. No action is required on the part of the student.
A student who is receiving Stafford loan funding and who did not borrow the maximum loan amount for his/her grade level may be eligible for additional Stafford loan due to the inclusion of costs for the Winter term. This will automatically be reviewed by the Financial Aid office. No action is required on the part of the student.
Students who would like additional funding in a PLUS or alternative loan may apply. Please indicate on the PLUS or alternative loan application that this funding is for the period of January 28, 2013, to May 10, 2013, since all financial aid for Winter term is processed and paid to the student account during the Spring term.
Feel free to contact the Financial Aid Office at 724-357-2218 or financial-aid@iup.edu with any questions.
