To be considered for financial aid at MassArt, the only application you need to complete is the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The priority deadline for filing the FAFSA is March 1 for first-time college students applying for fall, and for returning students. For transfer students who qualify for MassArt Start, April 1 is the priority deadline for transfer students applying to begin their enrollment in the fall, and November 15 for transfer students applying to begin their enrollment in the spring.
If you are an incoming student, you can expect to be packaged with financial aid beginning in January. If you are a returning student, you can expect to be packaged with financial aid beginning in May.
