Financial Assistance Deadlines
If you need financial assistance, you are encouraged to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) 
as early as possible, even if you have yet to receive an offer of admission from the W. P. Carey School of Business.
Fall Programs
| Deadline |
Significance |
| June 15 |
FAFSA Deadline for All MBA Platforms: Students submitting FAFSA's after this date cannot be guaranteed disbursement of their financial aid awards prior the start of class. |
| July 15 |
All supporting documentation requested by the financial aid offices of ASU or the W. P. Carey School of Business must be submitted in order to complete the student's financial aid file. A student's financial aid disbursement can be scheduled only after this occurs. |
| August 1 |
You must accept financial aid awards via ASU Interactive no later than this date so that disbursements will occur prior to the first payment due date. |
You may complete the FAFSA after June 15 for fall enrollment, but it may result in a slight delay in the initial disbursement of financial aid funds until after the start of class or after the first scheduled tuition payment date. We suggest that when submitting your application form, the FAFSA be submitted at the same time. Thus, if admitted to the Program, your request for financial aid will already be in process and not delayed.
