FINANCIAL AID PROGRAMS
Edinboro University has a coordinated system of disbursing funds avail-
able for student financial aid. All financial aid programs are adminis-
tered by the University's Office of Student Financial Support and
Services. Further information regarding the programs described below is
available from that office.
The primary goal of the Office for Student Financial Support and
Services is to provide appropriate financial resources for students to
achieve their educational potential while ensuring compliance with the
myriad of regulations, rules, policies and procedures from the various
sources of financial aid. The University strives to meet the "financial
need" of as many students from as many resources as possible.
Major funding sources are from the federal and state governments. For
consideration for financial assistance students must complete the Free
Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The preferred filing date
is March 15 for the next academic year. Edinboro University's school
code for filing the FAFSA is 003321 (Section 6 of the FAFSA). Students
who complete the FAFSA will be considered for all aid for which they
may qualify based on the available funds.
Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) Policy for
Financial Aid Recipients
Edinboro University of Pennsylvania has developed standards of
Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) in accordance with federal regu-
lations. This policy measures quantity (number of credits completed),
quality (cumulative quality point average), and maximum time frames
for completion and measures progress incrementally.
