Understanding Your Financial Aid Offer
USF is committed to using the Principles & Standards of the College Cost Transparency Initiative in its student financial aid offer. Access the financial aid award offer sent to your USF email.
Financial Aid Award Offers are also available in OASIS for you to view. After your aid offer has been generated, an e-mail version of the offer is sent to your USF email. If you are a dependent student for FAFSA filing purposes, an email is sent to the parent listed on the FAFSA informing them that your aid offer is available.
