Students who applied by the Early Action I Deadline should receive their initial financial aid package by the end of January. All other students should receive their financial aid package soon after their admission decision has been released.
Students should file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) as soon after October 1st as possible and add The College of Idaho to their FAFSA using our school code: 001617. The College uses FAFSA information to determine need-based scholarships and eligibility for federal grants and loans.
