Now, there’s just a few steps left before you can officially call yourself a Griffin. And, most can be completed online, when and where you’re ready.
Begin your college journey by completing the Free
Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®). This is
a form provided by the federal government to
determine a student’s eligibility for financial aid. You
will need to submit a FAFSA every year you wish to
apply for financial aid.
Be sure to sign and return your financial
responsibility agreement and student authorization
form to secure the financial aid you need. Our
Financial Aid team is here to help you make your
Fontbonne education a reality. Reach out if you have
any questions at all on grants, loans, scholarships,
eligibility, or the application process.
You’ve already been accepted. Now, lock down your
place in the semester you plan to start classes by
submitting your Enrollment Deposit. Your deposit
gives you priority placement for registration and
housing. So, the sooner you submit, the better.
Once you’ve submitted your enrollment deposit, you
are eligible to register for SOAR, Fontbonne’s
summer orientation event. This is a chance for you
and your parents to learn more about our
on-campus services, meet faculty and student
leaders, and tour our residential facilities. For your
convenience, this mandatory event is offered twice
over the summer.
Complete your application and submit your deposit
to secure your place in on-campus housing. Get
priority placement by submitting both by July 1 for
the fall semester or December 1 for the spring
semester.
A new Interprofessional Living-Learning Community living space is opening for Fall 2023. This will be a collaborative space where students in nursing, dietetics, and speech-language pathology programs can live, learn and experience connections through interprofessional activities with staff and faculty.
Help keep Griffin Nation healthy. Review the medical
and vaccination requirements for resident students,
and submit your completed Resident Medical
Information form by August 1 for fall semester,
January 1 for spring, and April 1 for summer.
