Next Steps

How Does It All Work?

The U.S. Department of Education will send you the results of your application.  If you are selected for verification, the National Park College Financial Aid office will add documents needed to your student OASIS account "to do" list. You must submit all official transcripts from any previous colleges, and you must be meeting the satisfactory academic progress policy to receive financial aid. If you have a question or concerns, please contact the Financial Aid office. After all your documentation has been submitted and your eligibility is determined, the NPC Financial Aid office will email you an award letter. Once your accounts have been paid, any remaining amounts will be disbursed to you by the NPC Business Office. 

NOTE: If you did not list NPC's school code of  012105 on the original FAFSA application form, you will need to add our school code by going to www.fafsa.ed.gov and making a correction to your FAFSA to add NPC.
