UF and SFA recognize that many individuals cannot assume the full financial burden of the cost of college education. Financial aid is available to bridge the gap between the costs of education and the student's financial resources.
The world of financial aid changes quickly, and this Web site will provide you with the most current and relevant information about important student aid programs, processes, and current issues. SFA values your thoughts and ideas and invites you to share your questions with us and to offer your suggestions on how we can provide the best services to you. We invite you to make frequent use of our Student Survey to give us feedback. I hope you enjoy your visit to our online home and will visit us again. My best wishes to you in the financial aid process.
