Classes Dropped for Non-Payment? 

If your classes for Fall 2025 have been dropped for non-payment of your bill, you can still resolve your payment issue and re-register for the fall term! Click here for more information and answers to the most prominent questions students are asking.

 

At North Carolina A&T, we believe any student who wishes to pursue their educational goals should be able to do so. As part of that commitment, our Financial Aid and Scholarships office will work with you to receive the financial assistance you need to attend N.C. A&T.

If you think you will need assistance, the first step is to complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) form. The N.C. A&T State University Federal School Code is 002905. Your information must then go through the process of verification.

A FSA ID is required to complete the FAFSA.

 

Who is Eligible for Aid?

To be eligible to receive financial aid, the applicant must:

  • Be admitted and currently enrolled at least half-time as an undergraduate or graduate student.
  • Be enrolled or accepted in an eligible degree-seeking program at N.C. A&T State University.
  • Be a U.S. citizen, permanent resident, or eligible non-citizen.
  • Have a valid Social Security number (except for students from the Republic of the Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia or the Republic of Palau).
  • Demonstrate financial need (for most programs).
  • Be registered with Selective Service if you are a male (you must register between the ages of 18 and 25).
  • Currently maintaining Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) toward the completion of his or her academic program.
  • Not be in default on any prior student loans; do not owe a repayment on any Title IV financial aid.
  • Not have been convicted of possessing or selling illegal drugs.

The FAFSA is Ready and So Are We

Great news: The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) for the 2025-26 school year has launched and is now available for new student applicants and continuing university students! North Carolina A&T Financial Aid officials urge students and their families to begin working on the application now to ensure they have access to the best selection of financial aid options.

Students and families are especially encouraged to take time during the winter holiday break to gather required personal information and financial details, log in to the FAFSA portal, complete the form and provide signatures where necessary.  

Ready to begin work on the FAFSA now? Go to https://studentaid.gov/ to get started.


The North Carolina A&T Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships has increased staffing to assist students with the complex challenge of applying for funds to pay for college.

The office will remain open through Dec. 23, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., to answer student calls and e-mails. Call 336-334-7973 or write to finaid@ncat.edu for help.

N.C. A&T students are currently on winter holiday break. But when they return in January, they will be met with a schedule of town halls, Zooms and opportunities for in-person assistance to ensure prompt completion of the FAFSA, analysis of their data and issuing of award letters.
