Many George Mason students receive some kind of financial aid, such as grants, scholarships, work-study employment, or loans.
To assist you with the financial aid process, George Mason’s Office of Student Financial Aid has a team of dedicated professionals available to help you and your family. The Financial Aid staff will work with you annually as you re-apply for financial assistance each year you attend George Mason.
If you’re interested in applying for financial aid, complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and submit it to the federal processor by the deadline for your student type (March 1 for freshman students, March 15 for transfer students). For more information, please visit How to Apply for Financial Aid.
