Awarded financial aid can help pay your Hawkeye bill and potentially assist with some living expenses. If you have not already done so:
-
File Your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to apply for many types of financial assistance including low interest loans and scholarships and grants.
-
Apply for Hawkeye and external scholarships.
