Financial Aid
You might have additional financial aid options to help you purchase a new computer. Financial aid is first applied toward any charges on your PAWS account. If your charges are paid, and you have additional financial aid, you can use that funding to purchase a computer.
If your current financial aid award does not cover all your expected costs, the Financial Aid office can help you review any additional options you may have.
Not sure if you’ll get a refund check? Try the Total Cost Estimator.
