Financial Aid

If you have not already done so, file your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) as soon as possible to ensure you receive full consideration for federal, State of Illinois and Bradley University financial assistance. Use the link below to access the FAFSA website.

Soon after receiving your FAFSA information from the U.S. Department of Education, Bradley will send you a notification email regarding your eligibility for financial assistance.
