Financial Aid, Costs and Scholarships

Timeline

November 15, 2012
Our early action application date for scholarships means that scholarship decisions will be mailed by December 20 to all students who have completed an application by November 15. (For students applying after November 15, see our Application Timeline.)

December 15, 2012
If you are eligible for our Regents'/Trustees' Scholarship, this is the deadline to apply. Students apply for the Regents'/Trustees' and other academic scholarships by applying for admission.

January 5, 2013
This is the deadline to apply for our Art, Music and Theater Scholarships.

This is the deadline to apply for our FoCuS and MapCores Scholarships.

February 18, 2013
This is the final deadline for our Intercultural Leadership, Education and Development Fellowship applications.

March 15, 2013
This is the recommended deadline to apply for need-based financial aid, (grants, on-campus employment, student loans.) Please note: we still accept financial aid applications after March 15. Applying by March 15 gives you the benefit of receiving your financial aid award in time to schedule another visit to campus, talk with faculty or coaches, or meet with financial aid before making an enrollment decision by May 1. If you apply after March 15, the financial aid staff will work hard to complete your financial aid award and send it to you before May 1 if possible. 

May 1, 2013
This is the national response date. Admitted students have a place reserved in the incoming class until this date, so it's important to send your enrollment deposit ($300) to us before May 1 if you plan to attend CSB/SJU. Because of strong interest, CSB/SJU are unable to guarantee enrollment to students who deposit after May 1.

CSB/SJU provide a Net Price Calculator to help you estimate your college expenses and possible eligibility for financial aid from CSB/SJU. 

This calculator is intended for first year applicants and will show you a sample of the kind of award that you might receive if you were admitted to CSB/SJU and applied for financial aid. Remember that the results are not final or a guarantee of financial aid but can help you make an informed college choice.
