Minnesota state grant recipients: Be aware of FAFSA deadline
From the Financial Aid Office

To be considered for Minnesota State Grant funds for fall semester, the U.S. Department of Education must receive your 2008-09 Free Application for Federal Student Aid on or before Thursday, Oct. 2, 2008. If your FAFSA is received after this date, you will not be eligible to receive a state grant for fall term, but you may receive state grant funds for subsequent terms of the aid year.

If you intend to file the FAFSA for this academic year, submit it immediately to receive consideration for state grant funding and federal student aid. You may file the FAFSA online after securing a Department of Education Personal Identification Number (PIN) for yourself and your parent (if applicable).

Contact the Financial Aid Office, (651) 962-6550, with questions or concerns.
