• Personal Application Portal 

  Be sure to check your Personal Application Portal regularly. Beyond the admission notification, your Personal Application Portal is also where you’ll find notifications for merit scholarships and need-based financial aid awards, as applicable. Once you submit your non-refundable enrollment deposit, this is also where you will find your SUeID, which will allow you to access your enrolled student portal.

Financial aid notifications will be delivered through your Personal Application Portal beginning in February. Once you receive your financial aid information, be sure to review it carefully.
