Due to limited student financial aid resources, Rivier must establish priority deadlines for financial aid applications. It is the student\u2019s responsibility to ensure that the FAFSA is filed by the priority deadline. On-time financial aid applicants are given full consideration for assistance. The availability of funds cannot be guaranteed for late applicants; therefore, they will be considered on a funds-available basis. To award federal funding to a student, the Office of Financial Aid must have a valid Student Aid Report (the results of the FAFSA).<\/p>\n<p>The deadlines for filing your FAFSA and providing additional documentation\/information that the Office requests are as follows:<\/p>\n<h4>For Fall-only 2026 Aid-Eligible Students \u2013 October 15, 2026<br \/>\nFor Fall\/Spring 2026-2027 or Spring-only 2027 Aid-Eligible Students \u2013 March 11, 2027<\/h4>\n<p>Undergraduate aid-eligible students are those enrolled at least half-time (with some exceptions). Furnishing the required documents by these deadlines doesn\u2019t guarantee the award of Rivier need-based funding (Rivier Grant) for Undergraduate students. As this is a limited funding pool, students are strongly encouraged to provide the necessary documents well before these deadlines. If you have any questions, please contact the Office of Financial Aid at (603) 897-8488 or <a href=\"mailto:finaid@rivier.edu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">by
