File a FAFSA form.
Saint Leo University encourages all students to electronically file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to determine eligibility for student aid assistance from federal, state, and private sources.
Be sure to enter Saint Leo University’s federal school code, 001526, when you file your FAFSA.
Once you file your FAFSA, you can take advantage of different options to fund your education. Some examples are through scholarships, grants, loans, and student employment.
If you ever have any financial aid or student account questions, our Student Financial Services team is here to help! We can assist you in areas regarding FAFSA, financial aid eligibility, student account payments, and more.
