SFS prepares and distributes bills for tuition, fees, room and board. SFS processes payments, offers third party monthly payment plans, disburses financial aid, and issues refunds. In addition, SFS staff evaluates your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FASFA) and determines your eligibility for federal and state financial aid programs, including loans.
