Sinclair students face Aug. 3 financial aid deadline
Sinclair Community College students must submit documents to the school’s Financial Aid office by Monday, Aug. 3, in order to guarantee that their financial aid will be processed by the fall quarter payment deadline of Aug. 28.
Sinclair is stressing the deadline to students because of increases in both enrollment and financial aid applications.
“Sinclair has always had a financial aid deadline,” said Allison Rhea, senior director of enrollment management/registrar. “We are experiencing a 30 percent increase in applications for financial aid this year. This combined with the increase in enrollment is causing us to more strictly enforce the deadline.”
Students who fail to turn in all documentation by Aug. 3 must be prepared to pay out-of-pocket or make arrangements with the Bursar’s Office to make other arrangements for payment, according to Sinclair officials.
Students can submit documentation by mail, fax or via the drop box outside the Financial Aid office, Building 10, Room 10324.
Students applying for financial aid must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) electronically at www.fafsa.ed.gov.
Students must submit all supplemental documents required to determine financial aid eligibility, such as signed 2008 tax forms and high school certification forms.
Students also should submit all special circumstances and dependency appeals documentations.
Classes for Sinclair’s fall quarter start on Sept. 9.
