Summer Financial Aid Overview
Undergraduate Students

At Cabrini University the academic year begins with the fall semester, followed by the spring semester and ends with the summer semester. The summer is considered a trailer for standard undergraduate programs.

Summer 2023 financial aid eligibility is determined using the 2022-23 FAFSA. If students have utilized any of their eligibility during the fall 2022 and spring 2023 semesters, their eligibility for summer 2023 financial aid may be limited.

Undergraduates enrolled in summer may be eligible to receive funding from one or more of the following programs: Federal Pell Grant, Federal Direct Loan, Pennsylvania State Grant. Summer eligibility will be reviewed by the Financial Aid Office after the student is registered for at least 6 credits for the summer term.
