Financial Aid (Loans and Scholarship - External and Institutional)

The Financial Aid Office handles all loan scholarship requests and applications.  Questions related to Cost of Attendance, loan/aid application, minimum enrollment requirement, or loan/award amount should be addressed to the Financial Aid Office.
 
Please note: While determining the federal direct loan amount that you want to borrow, please take into consideration the Origination Fee that the Federal loan agency deducts upfront from the gross amount, to ensure your net loan amount to be disbursed is enough to cover your bill. For any questions regarding Origination Fee, please reach out to the Financial Aid Office.
 

Students are required to complete all components of their loan and financial aid application by the due date established by the Financial Aid Office, which is before the tuition/fees bill due date.  Students not completing the financial aid application by the bill due date is subject to late payment fee assessment.

The Financial Aid Office normally disburses aid around the start of the semester, with disbursement dates also impacted by federal direct loan regulation and aid recipient's status of SAP (Satisfactory Academic Progress) provided by the school. Upon receiving disbursement rosters from the Financial Aid Office, the Bursar's Office posts the aid items to student accounts which are first applied to unpaid tuition and fee charges.
 

If aid disbursement is to be processed outside the normal schedule, students from any of the three schools need to work with the Financial Aid Office to resolve any issues related to the aid application.

If you are expecting a scholarship/award from an external organization other than UMass Chan Medical School:
  • Please notify both the Financial Aid Office and the Bursar's Office.
  • If the external organization needs an invoice sent to them before disbursing the funds (e.g., HRSA, the Army/Navy/Air Force, VA, National Guard, or any private entity), please reach out to the Bursar's Office as soon as possible.
  • Any outside scholarship/award should be sent to the Bursar's Office directly at:
