During the appointment, we can answer your questions and help you with your student's Financial Aid Offer for the upcoming semester or Academic year. Please select an appointment time and location preference below. Please ensure the student's name and any specific questions you may have are in your appointment form entry. If possible, please have the student request the appointment.
We value your time and want to ensure a thorough review of your financial aid options. While we accept walk-ins, scheduling an appointment in advance gives us the necessary time to your file and explore any additional funding options you may be eligible for. Please note that appointments must be requested at least 6 hours in advance. If we have a special event planned for any of the upcoming weeks, we will only accept appointments through 11:30 a.m. the day before the special event.
For FAFSA Assistance appointments, it's crucial that both the student and parent attend. This is because the FAFSA requires a parent's involvement until a student is 24 or married for undergraduate students. Having both the student and parent present is highly beneficial, especially when FAFSA-related issues have arisen. Please make sure you bring your laptop and have your FSA ID Information ready.
Virtual appointments are primarily for students who are out of state, outside of the Middle TN vicinity, or international undergraduate students. If you book a virtual appointment and you do not meet one of these criteria, we may need to reschedule for an in-person meeting. For Zoom appointments, we will send the meeting link to the email used to book the appointment at least 15 minutes before your appointment time.
We are excited to meet you and your family, and you will be scheduled to meet with one of our Financial Aid Advisors. If you have any questions, please contact us at financialaid@cumberland.edu.
