How to Accept Your Financial Aid Award

Financial aid offer letters are mailed to students once students are admitted into their program and a completed FAFSA has been received. If additional information is required of the student in order to complete such processes, such as Federal Verification or Proof of Citizenship, students will be informed by the Federal Processor and Concordia University. Once all requirements are met, it takes approximately three weeks for Concordia University to process your financial aid award and mail the award to you.
