Alternative Loans

The FAFSA for 2009-2010 must be received before alternative loans will be made available. If necessary, additional private loans for a minimum of $1,000 may be available to students who do not qualify for federally funded programs or if federal financial aid is insufficient to cover the cost of attendance. Students should contact the Financial Aid Office for applications and further information.

Scholarships and Tuition Waivers

There is no official scholarship program offered by the Financial Aid Office for the Summer Semester. Academic departments may offer scholarships for special situations. Students who receive scholarships from outside sources should submit this evidence to the Financial Aid Office as soon as it is known. Some resident students may be eligible for Montana tuition waivers, including Native American students, veterans who served in a period of war and no longer receive benefits, senior citizens, or surviving children or spouses of peace officers or fire fighters who have been killed in the line of duty. Students should contact the Financial Aid Office with questions about tuition waivers. Tuition waivers do not apply to UM Continuing Education Extended Courses.

ASUM Short-Term Student Loans

ASUM short-term student loans, from $50-$200, are available to ASUM Activity Fee-paying students who have a GPA of 2.0 or better and are enrolled for 7 or more credits. With the exception of the UM College of Technology, students must have been enrolled during the previous semester and may not be in their final semester of enrollment. This requirement and the co-signer requirement for loans over $50 are waived for students awaiting the receipt of Stafford Loan monies to be paid in the current semester. Other restrictions may apply. Forms and additional information about these loans are available in the ASUM office in University Center Room 105 or by calling 406.243.2451.
