Office of Financial Aid
The University at Buffalo offers a quality and affordable education to all students. The primary responsibility of the cost of a college education rests upon you, the student; however, financial aid programs are designed to assist you in paying for that cost. Our goal is to maximize your opportunities to locate and receive financial aid from multiple sources to cover your finances so that you can concentrate on your academics.
The Financial Aid team works in conjunction with the Student Response Centers (SRC) to deliver various services. Each SRC is a single point of contact for prospective, current students and their parents that includes: financial aid, billing, registration and academic records.
Financial Aid Walk-ins and/or Appointments will not be available the week of February 13 - February 17, 2012. The Financial Aid Office is preparing for an organizational change and will be using the week of February 13th to implement the change. Financial Aid Advisors will be available by email or phone only during the week. Please look for email announcements on the upcoming changes to the Office of Financial Aid over the next two weeks. We look forward to improving our service to the UB community.
