Apply for scholarships

Frostburg State has many institutional and department scholarships and may require a separate application. New students can apply for FSU 奖学金 once they receive their Student ID numbers and passwords to log into the AcademicWorks portal.

Read Your Student Aid Report (SAR)
Every student who files a FAFSA form receives a Student Aid Report (SAR). When you file your FAFSA electronically, you will receive an email from the U.S. Department of Education stating your FAFSA has been processed. The same email will include information on how you may view your SAR. Review the SAR and pay particular attention to the section entitled "SAR Comments." The SAR comments section will tell you if your FAFSA has any errors that need corrected or if you have been selected for verification. Reading the SAR comments immediately after processing a FAFSA is a good way to ensure that the financial aid process runs smoothly.
