Financing your education

Saint Martin's University understands that the cost of a college education is a significant investment of time and money. While each student and their family have a responsibility for meeting college expenses, Saint Martin's strives to insure that no one is denied access to a Saint Martin's education due to financial circumstances. Our Office of Financial Aid is committed to helping all eligible, admitted students finance their Saint Martin's education.

Merit scholarships and SMU Grant levels are based on the students’ entering GPA, need, and for incoming freshmen their test scores. Provided that you maintain the required GPA, have not exceeded the maximum timeframe for institutional aid, are a main campus student, and have submitted either a FAFSA or FAFSA Waiver by the March 1 deadline you will be eligible for your full merit scholarship or SMU Grant.

While students must be officially admitted to be considered for financial aid, students should not wait until they are admitted to begin the financial aid process. Start today by completing our net price calculator online, and when your finished move right into the FAFSA using our school code, 003794.
