Summer Financial Aid
Summer financial aid is determined in March and students are notified once summer offers are in place on MySandburg. Students are automatically reviewed for summer funding and notified of any eligibility.
Illinois Monetary Award Program does not fund the summer term.
To be eligible for Direct Loans and Direct Parent Plus Loans for the summer semester, you need to be enrolled in at least six credit hours. A student can borrow up to the annual limit for each year they are in school. A loan can be processed for summer if the student has not already borrowed their annual limit.
Sandburg Scholarships are not generally available for the summer term.
To Apply for Summer Financial Aid
Go to Apply for Aid and Eligibility and follow the instructions.
