Financial Aid

The primary purpose of our financial aid program at Gustavus Adolphus College is to provide financial aid to students who, without such aid, would be unable to attend Gustavus. We are here to guide you through the process of applying for or renewing your financial aid. While we believe that the primary responsibility for financing education lies with the student and his or her parents or guardians, we stand ready to help fill in the gap when family resources do not meet our costs. Financial aid, in various combinations of scholarships, grants, loans, and student employment are available to help make it possible for you to be a Gustavus student.

The information in this site is to help students understand the financial aid process at Gustavus. You should always contact the Financial Aid Office if you have additional questions. You can submit your FAFSA as early as January 1, 2009 using estimated data. We encourage families to file the FAFSA after your 2008 federal taxes have been completed. The priority deadline is April 17, 2009.

NOTE: MN State grants are not offered to students for fall semester if your FAFSA is filed later than October 1, 2009.
