freshmen students
Congratulations – You're a Saint!
You are now officially a SMU “Saint” and we look forward to having you
join our campus! To help prepare you for what to expect next, here’s a
list of actions to complete:
Items to complete immediately

for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) If you haven’t already, fill out and
submit your FAFSA with Saint Martin's University’s school code (003794).
March 1 is the priority deadline for financial aid.
- If you aren’t filing a FAFSA, remember to obtain and fill out a
FAFSA
Waiver form and return it to Financial Aid.
- You must file either a FAFSA or FAFSA Waiver in order for any money, merit aid included, to
disburse to your student account.
- Read and review your Financial Aid Award Letter
Award
letters will be mailed only to FAFSA/FAFSA waiver completed
applicants. If you have received a financial aid package and you
have questions or wish to decline any part of the award, please
indicate so in an email to the Financial Aid Office,
finaid@stmartin.edu.
- Submit your Enrollment Deposit
Send in your Enrollment Deposit ($325) to reserve your space in the
Fall 2008 class. If you are planning to live in the residence halls,
part of the deposit is applied as a housing security deposit and the
remainder is applied to your student account. For students living at
home or off campus, the entire amount will be applied to your student
account.
Enrollment Deposits can be made by cash, check, money order or
