To verify and finalize your award we may need additional documents from you. For students starting in the fall term, all documents must be received by August 1. Documents received after that date may delay your financial aid or result in the loss of an award.
Apply for financial aid by submitting your FAFSA and then use PSU’s Scholarship Universe to find other sources of funding. Portland State University students should use the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to apply for financial aid. The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) should be submitted by February 1 for priority consideration for our aid programs for the following academic year (fall term).
