    SCHOLARSHIPS

    The Office of Admission will review all applicants records for scholarship consideration. No special application is required ,

    only a completed admission application. Students interested in The University of Tulsa Performing Arts Scholarshipsor

    Athletic Scholarships should contact those departments or coaches directly for requirements (such as auditions, etc.) for

    award consideration. When the Student Financial Services Office is notified of a students selection for these awards, a notice

    will be sent. Scholarships are awarded for eight semesters, as long as the student maintains the requirements for renewal of

    the award. Details of these requirements can be found athttp://www.utulsa.edu/admission-and-financial-aid.aspx.

    NEED-BASED AID APPLICATION PROCEDURETo apply for the University Need-Based Grant, federal funding or state funding, the following form is needed to complete

    your application (additional forms or data may be required as determined by the Office of Student Financial Services):

    The 2012/2013 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The TU School Code is 003185.

    To complete your application for financial aid, the government must process your FAFSA. Students may complete their

    application by using FAFSA on the Web, available atwww.fafsa.ed.gov.You can find this link, as well as other important

    financial aid information, in the Financial Aid section of The University of Tulsa homepage. http://www.utulsa.edu To

    complete or make corrections to the FASFA, you will need a Personal Identification Number or PIN from the Department of

    Education. Both the student and one parent need a PIN in order to sign and complete the FAFSA. You can request a PIN

    from the Department of Education at www.pin.ed.gov. Oklahoma students applying for the Oklahoma Tuition Aid Grant

    (OTAG) must have a FAFSA processed before March 1, 2012, as OTAG funding is limited.

    VERIFICATION

    Applicants selected for verification who retrieve and transfer their income tax return information using the IRS Data

    Retrieval Process will be considered to have verified the FAFSA IRS information. These applicants will still need tocomplete a 2012-13 Verification Worksheet and submit it to TU. However if changes on the FAFSA were made to the

    transferred tax information, or if the applicant did not utilize the IRS Data Retrieval Process, the applicant must provide to

    TU an IRS Tax Return Transcript for the 2011 tax year for both the student and the parents. Additional documentation may

    be required.

    Students eligible for Federal Work Study, Perkins loans or Direct Stafford loans must complete verification priorto the last

    day of enrollment for 2012-2013. In addition, a valid FAFSA (processed and accepted) must be received by TU beforethe

    last day of enrollment. Direct Stafford loan applications must be certified by the Office of Student Financial Services before

    the last day of enrollment to receive loan funds.

    TU does not disburse awards for students who are selected for verification until the process is complete. Failing to complete

    verification by the deadlines will result in loss of any eligibility for federal aid funds. If you completely withdraw prior to

    submitting the documents for verification, federal aid will not be considered.

    If you are selected for verification and are federal Pell eligible, you must complete verification within 60 days from the lastday of enrollment or August 31, 2013, whichever is earlier. A valid Expected Family Contribution (EFC), meaning the

    FAFSA is processed and accepted, must be received within this time limit.

    Credit based parent and private student loansare available. If interested, contact the Office of Student Financial Services.

    Remember! You are responsible for the timely submission of all required application materials and documentation.

    Should you have any questions or concerns, contact the Office of Student Financial Services for consultation with a

    counselor. We are here to assist you and your parents in financing a quality private education at The University of

    Tulsa!
