Welcome to the Office of Student Financial Aid
Our goal is to assist you and your family in securing the resources necessary to fund your education. Last year, over one billion dollars in financial aid funds were administered and 67% of students received financial aid.

2024-2025 FAFSA
The Office of Student Financial Aid encourages all students to apply for financial aid. The 2023-2024 FAFSA is now available.
Students must be admitted to the University of Illinois before financial aid processing begins. You are encouraged to submit your FAFSA as soon as possible to be considered for all federal, state, and institutional financial aid programs.
Federal School Code: 001775
Once the Office of Student Financial Aid has received and reviewed your FAFSA, you can find confirmation in the Financial Aid section of your ‘Newly Admitted Student Checklist,’ available through your MyIllini account. Students are notified via email when the electronic 2024-2025 Financial Aid Notification is available to view in UI-Integrate Self-Service.
