Financial Aid for Summer Sessions

In addition to filing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) as outlined above, students who desire financial assistance for summer sessions must submit a Rhode Island College Application for Financial Aid—Summer Sessions. This form is available from the Office of Student Financial Aid on or about February 1 each year. Summer session aid is contingent upon the availability of funds and normally consists of Pell Grants, Federal Direct Loans, and Federal WorkStudy. To be considered for Federal Work-Study for summer sessions, the FAFSA must be received at the federal processing center by March 1 and the Application for Financial Aid—Summer Sessions must be received in the Office of Student Financial Aid by April 1.
