Find Your Counselor

Identify your financial aid counselor and find out how to contact them. Virtual meetings via Zoom are also available.

To provide better and more personalized service, students, both active and prospective, should use the following listing to identify their financial aid counselor.

Find Your Group

For Athletes, Undergraduate and Graduate students, each alphabetical grouping, e.g., B-C, represents students with last names beginning with those letters.

Veteran Students (i.e., those active or prospective students entitled to veterans educational benefits), and OAP (Online Accelerated Program) students are not included in the alphabetical groupings and are considered two individual groups. These two groups have their own counselor(s).

Use the Table Below

Below, you can find your financial aid counselor by student last name or special grouping.

You may hover over your counselor’s name to obtain their email address and submit any questions that you have or to schedule a time for an in-person meeting, phone conversation, or virtual meeting via Zoom.
