Financial Aid and AlamoPROMISE
|
As an AlamoPROMISE scholar, you must maintain Financial Aid eligibility. This includes submitting and completing your financial aid application – FAFSA / TASFA – every year you are enrolled at the Alamo Colleges. The FAFSA/TASFA opens in the Fall, and continuing AlamoPROMISE scholars must submit and complete renewal financial applications each year. After the submission of your FAFSA/TASFA application, check your ACES account to confirm your FAFSA or TASFA application has been verified and all requirements have been met. In order to ensure your continued AlamoPROMISE status and timely awarding, please submit any additional documentation requested by the *Financial Aid Priority Date of May 1. |
*The Financial Aid priority dates are to ensure the review and processing of a student's financial aid application before the first day of class. To qualify as a priority applicant, Alamo Colleges must receive your completed FAFSA, verification documents, and all other requested documents ON or BEFORE the priority date. Standard processing time can take 2-3 weeks, so please submit your FAFSA early enough for processing and additional documents to be requested and collected prior to the priority date. Any outstanding financial aid documents will be requested through the student portal, ACES. Any outstanding financial aid documents will be requested through the student portal, ACES. |
