FAFSA Application Priority Date
The application and awarding process will take time to complete. Therefore, the FAFSA priority date is highly recommended. Students may apply after this date, however, we cannot guarantee the awarding process will be completed to hold a place in classes without payment on the payment due date. A Financial Aid Award must be completed and accepted online through myMPTC before the payment due date in order to meet the payment deadlines or to qualify to charge books to anticipated aid. The FAFSA application is available online at studentaid.gov on October 1 each year.*
If the semester priority processing date is missed, a student’s application will still be accepted and processed, but it may not be processed in time for you to use financial aid to pay for tuition or books. However, you can still take advantage of paying your tuition through myMPTC in order to meet the College’s payment deadline for tuition and fees. If you make a payment in full or set up a payment plan and are later approved for financial aid funding to cover your total bill, your payment would be reimbursed.
*the 2024-2025 FAFSA application will be available December 2023
Admissions Application Priority Date
The application process will take time to complete, therefore, the Admissions priority date is highly recommended. If you are interested in using financial aid to pay tuition and fees, admission to an eligible program is required to complete a financial aid award. New students may apply after this date; however, we cannot guarantee the financial aid awarding process will be completed to hold a place in classes without payment on the payment due date.
Payment Due Date
In order to avoid being dropped for non-payment, a student must choose and complete one of the four options below by the due dates.
- Payment-in-full
- Enroll in the On-Line Payment Plan
- Submit Third-Party Sponsorship Application
- Complete Financial Aid Award
First Day to Charge Books to Anticipated Aid
A Financial Aid Award must be completed and accepted online through myMPTC before the payment due date in order to meet the payment deadlines or to qualify to charge books to anticipated aid.
Financial Aid – Date of Record
