Financial Aid The primary purpose of the financial aid program at the University of San Diego is to provide support to students who otherwise would be unable to attend the university. Financial assistance consists of scholarships, grants, loans and employment.

Need is the primary factor in awarding most financial aid. For university scholarships and grants, consideration is given to the applicant’s academic achievement, character and potential. A financial aid package is designed to help meet the financial need of each individual student. Each package may consist of funding from one or more programs and can vary depending on established need and/or merit. The university’s Office of Financial Aid is available to assist students with the cost of attending the university. Students who complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) by the priority deadline will be considered for all types of financial aid. More information is available at the Office of Financial Aid or its website, www.sandiego.edu/financialaid.
