In order to apply for financial aid, you must file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).

If you already filed the FAFSA, but did not list Kent State on the FAFSA, you will need to add Kent State’s school code (003051) to the FAFSA. You can make a correction to the FAFSA at StudentAid.gov.

You may need to submit additional documentation, in addition to the FAFSA, if requested. Outstanding requirements will be viewable in FlashLine once the FAFSA is received. After all requested documents are reviewed and the file is complete, Kent State will award financial aid, if eligible. You will be notified when you can view and accept/decline/reduce your financial aid awards (including federal aid, state aid and university scholarships) in FlashLine under Financial Aid Awards.
