Student Financial Aid and Scholarships

The University administers an extensive program of financial aid services that include merit scholarships and need-based grants, loans and work-study. Assistance is available to eligible students who have demonstrated their ability to successfully pursue their educational goals. Financial aid is a supplement to the contribution toward college costs that can reasonably be expected from the student and the family. Since college is a “planned investment”, all factors involved in financing an education should be evaluated and considered in advance. Annually applying for assistance is one of those steps: submit the FAFSA (fafsa.ed.gov) and complete the Graduate & Undergraduate Scholarship application in MyNEVADA supplemental forms by the published priority deadline.
