- As indicated in the information packet, to qualify for Geology Foundation summer financial aid, you must submit a FAFSA to the Office of Student Financial Services by March 31. This can be done online but requires certain information that takes time to gather - don't wait too long to get started.
- See the FAQ for further info.
