Financial Aid

Degree-Seeking Students: The Office of Student Financial Aid (OSFA) at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign administers financial aid programs to eligible campus-based and online degree-seeking students for the fall and spring terms. Summer session financial aid may be available depending on the individual’s financial aid status. Financial Aid is extremely limited for the Winter Session courses. Financial Aid is NOT available for self-paced courses or non-credit courses. For more information, visit the Office of Student Financial Aid website, call 217-333-0100, or email: finaid@illinois.edu.

Non Degree-Seeking Students (not accepted into a degree program) are not eligible to receive federal and state financial aid. If you are currently enrolled in a degree program at another University and are currently receiving financial aid or a scholarship, consult with your financial aid office for eligibility reimbursement.

Scholarships, Benefits or Waivers. Some colleges or universities, employers, organization, or military affiliations will pay for online courses at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
