Types of Aid

The University of Chicago offers many types of financial aid and pledges to meet 100% of your family’s demonstrated need through a combination of grants, scholarships, and work expectations.

By completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), you are applying for all of the aid programs the federal government has to offer, as well as programs your home state may provide.

The UChicago Financial Aid Worksheet (along with the FAFSA) is used to help us determine your eligibility for the University’s need-based grant aid.
