The Office of Student Financial Aid and ScholarshipsWelcome! The mission of our office is to provide access to postsecondary education by rewarding academic achievement and by reducing the financial barriers that would otherwise prevent students from attending the University of Nevada, Reno. We administer programs of merit aid-scholarships, and need-based aid- grants, loans, and work-study. The diversity and individuality of our student body is an important consideration in the varied programs of assistance and services we offer.
This site is your information highway into the mystifying world of financial aid and your survival guide to navigating the many paths. At the end is the financial assistance you need and want, whether that is a grant, scholarship, loan, or Work-Study employment. Use it to answer questions, inform, find links, understand the process and procedures, do searches, meet deadlines, or explore what the University has to offer. Enjoy the ride!What's New?- Need additional funding?
Parents of dependent students are able to borrow additional funds that the student can use toward UNR expenses. The PLUS loan allows a parent to borrow up to the student cost of attendance (minus other aid). We do not include PLUS on the offer letter, but you can review our website for additional information. You must complete the PLUS loan activation form (submit the LAF to UNR) and be approved by the lender to receive the funding. If a PLUS loan is denied by the bank, the student could be eligible for additional loan funds.
