Information For International Students
The U.S. Department of Education determines eligibility for federal financial assistance. Federal financial assistance eligibility requires the student to qualify as a U.S. citizen or as an eligible non-citizen.
Generally, a student is an eligible non-citizen if he or she is:
- A U.S. permanent resident with a Permanent Resident Card (I551);
- A conditional permanent resident (I-551C); or
- The holder of an Arrival-Departure Record (I-94) from the Department of Homeland Security showing any of the following designations: “Refugee,” “Asylum Granted, “Parolee” (I-94 confirms paroled for a minimum of one year and status has not expired, or “Cuban-Haitian Entrant.”
If the student meets the above criteria, he or she can apply for federal aid by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). For additional general financial aid eligibility information, visit the Eligibility section.
If the student is in the United States on an F1 or F2 student visa or on a J1 or J2 exchange visitor visa or a G series visa, she or he is not eligible for federal student aid.
