Northampton Community College's 2008/2009 financial aid priority application deadline is March 31, 2008.  Students interested in obtaining financial aid before the Fall 2008 semester tuition due date should submit the 2008/2009 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and 2008/2009 Northampton Community College Financial Aid Information forms by March 31, 2008.

Students may still apply for financial aid after the priority application deadline.  However, these applicants must be prepared to pay their Fall 2008 semester tuition bill in full or enroll in the tuition payment plan offered by NCC by the Fall 2008 semester tuition due date of August 5, 2008.  Students who pay their Fall 2008 semester tuition bill in full and are subsequently awarded financial aid will receive the amount of their aid as a financial aid refund.

If you receive a financial aid Award Letter from NCC, any financial aid amounts (except Work/Study) for the semester which are listed as "pending" or "applied" should be subtracted from the total balance due on your bill.  If your total bill is greater than the amount of your financial aid, you must pay your remaining balance due or enroll in the tuition payment plan offered by NCC by the Fall 2008 semester tuition due date.

If your enrollment status or program of study changes prior to the end of the Fall 2008 semester tuition refund period, adjustments may have to be made to your financial aid at that time.
