The Office of Student Financial Aid and Scholarship Services Grants | Loans | Scholarships | Workstudy | Veterans | FAQs | Contact Us School Code: 002659 Awards An official Award Notification Letter will be mailed to you once your file is complete. The letter summarizes the type(s) and amount(s) of aid offered if you are a full time (12 credit hours or more) student for grant aid and at least a half time (6-8 credit hours) student for student loans. If you are enrolled less than full time, the grant amount will be adjusted downward; if you are enrolled less than half time, the loan will be cancelled. You must be admitted to the university as a degree-seeking student in order to qualify for Federal student aid. Carefully read the award terms and conditions on the back of the notice to determine the type(s) of aid that you would like to accept and/or decline. Then go to www.my.nmsu.edu and click on the Student and Financial Aid Tab to complete the process. At this site, you will need to accept or decline any loan or work-study aid that has been offered. The university assumes that you will accept all gift aid offered (Grants and scholarships) If you accept a loan, you must complete the Entrance Counseling and Master Promissory Note if this is your first loan at New Mexico State University-Carlsbad. Failure to complete these steps will delay indefinitely the disbursement of these funds. If you accept a work-study award, you must print the award and take a copy to the Counseling and Student Development Center. Jobs are posted in the Center and you will be instructed on completing the hiring process. You may not begin to work until you have completed this process. Please contact your advisor in the Financial Aid office if you have any questions regarding the award process. How to Use Your Financial Aid to Hold Your Registration If you have been awarded grants, loans, or NMSU-C scholarships, you do not need to make a down payment when you register for classes. If your award is for anything other than Federal Grants, Loans or Scholarships, you must make a down payment. You cannot defer your down payment with a work-study award, Veteran Administration benefits, or employer reimbursements. Stop by the Business Office to make arrangements for paying a down payment. If you do not stop by the Business Office after you register for classes, your classes may be cancelled. See your Financial Aid advisor if you have questions about your award. |
