Financial Aid
The primary purpose of the financial aid program at the University of San Diego is to provide financial assistance to students who, without such aid, would be unable to attend the university. Financial assistance consists of scholarships, grants, loans, and employment.
Primary responsibility for financing an education rests upon the student and the student’s family. Financial aid from the university is viewed as a supplement to funds which can be provided by the student, the student’s family, and other sources. Students requesting financial assistance may be expected to meet a portion of their educational expenses by accepting employment, loan(s), or both. Because financial aid funds are limited, need is the primary factor in awarding most financial aid. For USD scholarships and grants, consideration is given to the applicant’s academic achievement, character, and potential. Students requesting financial assistance from USD resources must also apply for scholarships and grants funded by their home states for which they may be eligible.
A financial aid package is designed to meet the financial need of each individual student. Each package may consist of funding from one or more programs and may range from $500 to $41,300 or more, depending on established need and/or merit.
Eligibility Requirements
1. The student must be accepted officially by the Office of Undergraduate Admissions to pursue a degree or certificate, and maintain satisfactory academic progress as defined in the USD Guide to Financial Aid Consumer Information. The guide is available on the USD Office of Financial Aid Web site at www.sandiego.edu/financial_aid or in the Office of Financial Aid (OFA).
2. The student must complete the appropriate application(s) – see application procedure below.
3. The student must be a United States citizen or eligible non-citizen.
4. The student must not be in default on any federal loan or owe a refund on any federal grant.
5. Financial aid applicants must be aware that certain financial aid programs are designed to assist students who complete their degree work in a normal four-year period. Those who elect or require additional time may have to rely more heavily on self-help assistance in the form of work and loans.
6. Certain USD funds require full-time enrollment.
Application Procedure
1. Each student must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) available at www.fafsa.ed.gov. Students who do not wish to submit their FAFSA on line can print a blank FAFSA from the FAFSA Web site or can request a blank copy be mailed to them by calling 1 (800) 4-FEDAID. All students are expected to read and follow the instructions and deadlines in the Guide to Applying for Financial Aid at USD available on the OFA Web site.
2. When required by federal law, and upon request from the Office of Financial Aid, it will be necessary for the student to submit a copy of the parents’/student’s latest federal income tax return and respond to other requests for information by the Office of Financial Aid.
3. All financial aid applications must be postmarked on or before the priority deadline dates listed in the Academic Calendar (page 6 of this bulletin) in order to receive priority consideration. Additionally, all follow-up information must be received by the USD Office of Financial Aid by the deadlines specified on the follow-up requests. Non-priority applicants are considered for any remaining funds and are processed after priority applicants.
4. Students must follow these procedures each year in reapplying for financial aid.
Scholarships and Grants
Merit Awards
The University of San Diego has established the following merit-based scholarship programs for which all freshmen applicants are considered. The Office of Undergraduate Admissions selects merit scholarship recipients. Consideration is given to high academic achievement, test scores, leadership, service, talent, and other personal qualities, irrespective of financial circumstances. These awards may be combined with other forms of university and outside financial aid for students with demonstrated need.
Trustee Scholars
Trustee Scholars are designated in the name of the University of San Diego Trustees. These four-year awards must be applied to university expenses. Renewal is contingent upon maintenance of the GPA specified on the information received with initial notification of the award from the Office of Undergraduate Admissions.
Presidential Scholars
Presidential Scholars are designated in the name of the President of the University of San Diego. These four-year awards must be applied to university expenses. Renewal is contingent upon maintenance of the GPA specified on the information received with initial notification of the award from the Office of Undergraduate Admissions.
Provost “Circle of Excellence” Scholarships
“Circle of Excellence” Scholarships recognize students who possess the unique combination of academic excellence, personal qualities of leadership and perseverance, and the potential to advance the university’s goal of creating a diverse and inclusive community. A limited number of “Circle” scholarships are granted each year and are designed to cover the full cost of tuition for up to four years. Renewal of these scholarships is continued upon maintenance of good academic standing, attendance at “Circle” events, and representation of the university in a manner consistent with its mission.
USD Academic Excellence Awards
This award is offered to a small number of incoming freshmen who have demonstrated academic excellence through their outstanding grades, rigorous curriculum, and their designation as a national merit semifinalist. Designation as an academic excellence scholar carries with it a four-year, full tuition award (tuition and fees only) without respect to financial need. If financial need is demonstrated, this award must be coordinated with other federal, state and institutional gift assistance. Students must maintain a 3.0 GPA and full-time status.
Choral Scholars
Choral scholars are selected on the basis of audition through the Department of Fine Arts. While the amount of the scholarship is determined annually, it typically covers almost half of tuition and is renewable for up to four years for an undergraduate student, subject to a student maintaining a 3.0 GPA, participating in a specific program curriculum, and sustaining involvement in the choral scholars singing group. Students are encouraged to apply for need-based aid before the priority deadline and, if eligible, will receive an offer which coordinates the choral scholarship with other assistance. Students should contact the Department of Fine Arts for further information.
Note: Eligibility for renewal of need-based scholarships is based on the cumulative GPA provided to the Office of Financial Aid by the registrar, calculated through the end of the previous January Intersession.
University of San Diego Scholarships
These scholarships are awarded to both new and continuing full-time students. Awards are generally based on academic factors, the family’s financial circumstances, and the student’s potential to contribute to the university. Eligible continuing USD students must have documented need, meet the renewal criteria for USD funds, and make satisfactory academic progress.
Scholarships range from several hundred to several thousand dollars, and are renewable each year provided that the student’s overall grade point average equals the renewal standard and the student continues to demonstrate financial need.
University of San Diego Grants
These grants are offered to eligible students with documented need. The amounts vary. Academic eligibility is determined by the Office of Undergraduate Admissions. USD grants are renewable if renewal requirements are met.
Bishop Maher Catholic Leadership Scholarships
This program, named for the late Bishop Leo T. Maher, provides annually renewable scholarships to Catholic undergraduate students who have demonstrated leadership in their parish, school, or community. The awards range from $500 to approximately $4,000 per year, depending on the financial need, academic performance, and demonstrated leadership of the applicant.
In addition to the regular financial aid application forms described above, a special Bishop Maher Catholic Leadership Scholarship Application, a letter from the applicant, and a letter of recommendation from the student’s parish priest are required. Maher scholarship applications are available at the USD Web site, www.sandiego.edu/financial_aid/forms or upon request from the Office of Financial Aid.
Duchesne Scholarship Program
The University of San Diego, through the School of Leadership and Education Sciences, offers this scholarship for culturally diverse graduate students pursuing a teaching career in public and private elementary and secondary schools. The scholarship program is designed to recognize qualified minority students pursuing a teaching career. The scholarships assist graduate students seeking their teaching credential. USD awards Duchesne Scholarships annually to incoming and continuing students. The amount of the scholarship varies depending on the financial need of the student. Eligible applicants must have a cumulative GPA of at least 3.0. Duchesne Scholarship applications are available upon request from the USD School of Leadership and Education Sciences.
Cal Grants
Each year the State of California awards a number of Cal Grants to assist with tuition and fees to students who are legal residents of the State of California and have demonstrated academic achievement and financial need. The grants can be renewed each year. In 2007-2008 the Cal Grants ranged from $1,551 to $11,259.
The University of San Diego advises all students who are legal California residents to apply for this State grant. To be considered, the student must complete the FAFSA, as listed above, and also provide other information as requested (for example, submit GPA Verification Form to the California Student Aid Commission). The deadline for submitting all the necessary forms is announced each year by the California Student Aid Commission. See deadlines section on page 55.
Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant
This federal program is designated for highly needy undergraduate students with priority given to recipients of Federal Pell Grants (see below). Funding is based on federal allocations and varies each year.
Federal Pell Grant
The Federal Pell Grant Program assists undergraduate students with substantial financial need. The student will receive a Student Aid Report (SAR) from the federal processor which will indicate whether or not the student is eligible for the grant. The maximum 2007-2008 Federal Pell Grant was $4,310. The maximum amount is determined each year by the federal government.
Federal Academic Competitiveness Grant
An Academic Competitiveness Grant will provide up to $750 for the first year of undergraduate study and up to $1,300 for the second year of undergraduate study to full-time students who are eligible for a Federal Pell Grant and who have successfully completed a rigorous high school program, as determined by the state and recognized by the Secretary of Education. Second year students must maintain a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of at least 3.0.
National SMART Grant
The National Science and Mathematics Access to Retain Talent Grant, also known as the National SMART Grant is available during the third and fourth years of undergraduate study to full-time students who are eligible for the Federal Pell Grant and who are majoring in physical, life, or computer sciences, mathematics, technology, or engineering or in a foreign language determined critical to national security. The student must also have maintained a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of at least 3.0 in coursework required for the major and must maintain enrollment in at least one class required for their major.
Bureau of Indian Affairs Grants
Through the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), the federal government provides annual grants to Native American students to encourage them to attend institutions of higher education. Eligibility is dependent upon criteria established by the BIA. Scholastic achievement is considered and must be maintained.
Interested Native American students should contact the area or agency office having records of their tribal membership. That office will provide the necessary application forms. The amount of the award varies and is based on unmet financial need.
Private Scholarships and Grants
The University of San Diego receives donations from private sources to provide scholarships and grants to selected students in the name of the donor. In addition to meeting the USD scholarship criteria, additional qualifications and requirements may be stipulated by the donor.
Current students are automatically considered for any of the scholarships listed below for which they are eligible when they apply for financial aid at USD (see application procedure on page 44). For some scholarships with specific requirements, the USD Scholarship Questionnaire is used to determine eligibility, and only students who complete this form will be considered for those scholarships.
