This online estimator was developed to help garaduate and doctoral students plan for future educational costs at James Madison University. The figures provided in this tool are estimations and are subject to change based on changes in school costs, changes to your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), modifications to awarding formulas, and fund availability. This estimation is not intended to serve as a financial aid award notice.
James Madison University's FASFA filing priority date is March 1st, which means the Department of Education must receive your FAFSA by this date for you to be considered an "on time filer". We suggest you submit the FAFSA on-line at http://www.fafsa.gov a few days before March 1st to ensure timely receipt. If you are completing a paper FAFSA, make sure you allow time for your application to reach the Department of Education by the deadline.

Federal regulations require students to be enrolled on at least a half-time basis to meet the enrollment requirement for federal aid, including loans. The minimum half-time enrollment for financial aid per term at JMU is 5 credit hours. If you are taking less than 5 credit hours in a term that enrollment cannot be counted in your financial aid eligibility.
This is not a financial aid application or award notice for 2010-2011. The data you provide and the results will not be stored by James Madison University. This estimate may change and is not binding on the Secretary of Education, James Madison University, or the state of Virginia.
