College Financial Advisory Precaution:
Never pay a fee to determine whether you are eligible
for financial aid. The FAFSA (Free Application for
Federal Student Aid) is the only application form used
by UWSP to determine financial aid eligibility.
Likewise, reputable scholarship organizations do not
charge a fee to determine your eligibility. The Better
Business Bureau (BBB) has received complaints regarding
the College Financial Advisory. For more information,

M&I Borrowers: If
you are a continuing student who uses M&I as a lender
for your Stafford loan and it has not yet been applied
to your account, you may need to complete a new
Master Promissory Note with
Nelnet or call the service provider at 1-877-804-3603.
US Bank Borrowers: After September 26, 2009,
new
Master Promissory Notes, selecting a different
lender, will be required on Stafford loan
certifications.
Remember to file
your 2009-2010 FAFSA online. UWSP school code:
003924
