You will need to submit the following documents to complete the admissions process. This must be completed before any financial aid will be awarded to your account and before you can enroll in classes.

Students who submit their application after the priority deadline are still eligible for financial aid, but may need to pay their tuition before the payment due date.

If you have already applied for FAFSA for the current academic year and need to transfer your award to UA Cossatot, you will need to add UA Cossatot’s school code (012432) to your FAFSA.
