Free Application for Federal Student Aid or FAFSA
This application must be completed each year to determine all other funding. The student may apply online at www.fafsa.ed.gov with or without a federally issued PIN number. If you do not have a PIN, be certain to send the signature page immediately after transmitting your data. Electronically submitted information will be processed in ten to 14 days.
If you do not have a PIN, you may apply for one at www.pin.ed.gov. With this individual code, you may electronically sign your FAFSA. It may also be used to make corrections directly online, reapply for financial aid, view federal loan database and add schools for data release. If you had a PIN but do not remember what it is, you may use this website to request it be reissued.
Once your FAFSA application has been processed, Lindenwood will receive an institutional student information record. If you have been selected for verification, Lindenwood University will contact you by mail informing you of the necessary document needed to complete the application process. No aid will be processed until the verification process is complete.
The office of Financial Aid will send you a Financial Aid Award Letter indicating what sources of aid you are using to pay your charges at Lindenwood University. Review the Award Letter for accuracy, sign and return the white copy to the Financial Aid office. If changes are necessary please contact the Financial Aid office by phone or mail.
All scholarships are financial resources and, as such, must be taken into account when an award is being packaged. If you receive a scholarship from a source other than the University, you should notify the financial aid office immediately if it does not appear on your award letter. If it is renewable, it will automatically be included in future awards provided the renewal criteria are met.
