Making an Educational Investment

We encourage students to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) at studentaid.gov. The FAFSA is the only application required at University of Portland to determine your eligibility for financial aid. Submit your FAFSA promptly each year to maximize your financial aid opportunities. Our federal school code is 003224.
