Find Your Counselor

For both 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), student-athletes on athletic aid, and OAP (Online Accelerated Program) students are not included in the alphabetical groupings and are considered three individual groups. These three 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.

The Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid is here to assist you with any questions, you may have about the financial aid process.

We do understand that there may be times that you are unable to stop by our office in person to discuss your financial aid plans or you may not be able to reach us via the telephone.

Need to meet with a financial aid counselor virtually? Zoom sessions are available Monday - Friday 12 p.m. to 2 p.m.

Financial Aid Office Zoom Room

Once you click this link you will be placed into our Zoom waiting room. Meetings will be set to 15 minutes max to allow us to see as many students as possible.

If the wait is too long, we encourage you to call us at 910.962.3177 to see if you can be assisted that way or email your counselor with your inquiry.

Please note: The Zoom Room is not available on weekends or when the university is closed for a holiday.

Due to privacy and confidentiality (FERPA), any detailed, account-specific questions you may have, we do encourage you to email or call your assigned financial aid counselor.
