Apply For Financial Aid

Students are encouraged to explore financial aid opportunities and apply for aid as soon as possible at www.fafsa.ed.gov. It can take up to 8 weeks from the date that verification documents are received in the Financial Aid Office for your financial aid to be determined or awarded. The Federal school code for Richland College is 008504.

If your financial aid has not been awarded by your payment due deadline, you will be responsible for paying your tuition by the due date. If you cannot pay for your classes and have not received your financial aid, you must drop your classes so that you will not be charged for your classes. For more information see Paying for College.
