How do I check my financial aid award status and requirements?

Click here to view the step-by-step process for checking your financial aid status in ACES, or review the steps listed below. 

Check your ACES "My Page" tab for your award status. 

  • Students with a Financial Aid award posted for the term do not need to make payment arrangements at this time.
  • If you are registered and have a financial aid award, your bill will be paid automatically.
  • If no awards are posted, click the link titled, “Progress” found below the Financial Aid Checklist box of the My Page tab to determine if your file has been processed and all requirements are complete.
  • If your file has not been processed or completed, you need to make payment arrangements to avoid being dropped from your classes.
  •  
What if I don’t have enough financial aid funds to cover my tuition and fees?

Your tuition and fees will be covered up to the amount of your financial aid award. To avoid being dropped for non-payment, you must ensure payment of any remaining difference before the tuition deadline.

Log in to ACES and compare your financial aid award with your tuition and fees balance. If you have a remaining balance, you may pay in full or by enrolling in the Financial Aid Payment Plan.
