CREATE YOUR FSA ID You’ll need to create your own account (separate from your parents’ account) in order to fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). CAMPUS EXPERIENCE With a campus this beautiful in such an incredible location, it really must be seen to (almost) be believed. WEEKDAY STUDENT TOURS Meet with an admissions counselor and take a campus tour led by one of our friendly and knowledgeable student ambassadors. MARINE BIOLOGY TOURS Come tour our Oceanographic Campus and academic diving facilities. VIRTUAL TOURS AND INFO SESSIONS If getting to campus doesn’t work for you right now, we offer several virtual options for campus visit experiences including tours and info sessions on Premier Programs, financial aid, and academic programs. It’s one thing to read about our amazing programs, living-learning community, and state-of-the-art facilities. But it’s an entirely different experience to walk across campus (most likely wearing shorts and flip-flops, no matter the time of year), talk to professors in your programs of interest, and ask current students questions about life at NSU Florida. APPLY FOR SCHOLARSHIPS Grants and scholarships do not have to be repaid. Find the most up-to-date list and requirements on the scholarships page on our website. (Tip: Complete the NSU Scholarship Profile every year!) APPLY FOR FLORIDA STATE AID If you’re a Florida resident, complete the NSU State Aid Application. REVIEW YOUR FAFSA SUBMISSION SUMMARY This summary will include your Student Aid Index (SAI), which is used to determine your eligibility for federal aid. SCHEDULE YOUR VISIT APPLY FOR A PAYMENT PLAN This is a great option for students and families who would like to spread out payments for their remaining balance after financial aid and other sources of funding have been applied.
