Electronic Notification
The Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships will correspond with you exclusively through your UMBC email address so be sure to monitor it regularly. Once you have been admitted to UMBC you must upgrade your myUMBC account. Your upgraded account will allow you to set up your UMBC email. Students can view a variety of information via myUMBC including financial aid awards and required documents.
Financial Aid offer notifications are sent beginning late March. An email will be sent via your myUMBC email account when your award notification is available. If you just completed your FAFSA or were recently admitted to UMBC, you will be able to access your award notification 2-3 weeks after the date of submission of your FAFSA or the date you are admitted, whichever is later.
