Student Financial Aid
A college education at the University of Findlay will be one of the most important investments you will make. Financial aid can help bridge the gap between the student’s resources and the cost of education. At Findlay, our college investment plan is designed to make investing in your future more affordable. The Office of Financial Aid works with each student every step of the way to develop a customized, financial aid plan that meets your financial needs to help you reach your educational goals.
The 2025-2026 FAFSA will be available on October 1. Students must apply for financial aid each year by filing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
To be eligible for any federal financial aid, all new and continuing students and their parents are required to complete and submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). All students who complete the FAFSA will qualify for federal loans. In addition to scholarships and grants, your award package may include a suggested amount for federal student loan programs (Federal Direct Stafford Loan or Federal Direct PLUS Loan) and work-study.
Scholarship Opportunities
Findlay’s college investment plan is a partnership between the University and you and your family. Our goal is to guide you to graduation with the least amount of debt possible. Your part of the partnership is to work hard to build the knowledge base you need to become a successful alumnus.
