Financial Aid question

Does financial aid last the fall, spring, and summer semesters? OR do you have to reapply after the fall session because it is a new year? I can't remember and I am almost to the point of having enough money to return to school. Just making sure beforehand.. so, I can go ahead and reapply if needed. Thanks!

Financial aid is for the school year.

You apply once for the entire year. However, you do not get financial aid for the summer if you already recieved it for fall and/or spring. Also, you have to maintain 67% passing in your overall class total in order to keep your financial aid.

Financial Aid will last through the school year, but you want to re-apply after the first of the new year to ensure aid for the fall :)  There are also special forms for spring and summer financial aid.

You should fill out a FAFSA each year.
