Financial Aid Calendar

Last Updated: 10/15/2009

Fall begins the academic year and summer ends the academic year. If you begin in spring or summer you should apply for two academic years at the same time. One FAFSA would be for your current semester or term and the second would be for the approaching Fall or T1.

***NOTE*** This calendar is comprehensive among all TROY campuses. Individuals should consult their individual campuses for specific dates on that particular campus.

Every year there are students who do not make it and the Federal processing time runs out before funds are actually here.
