Your Pitt email account is the primary way that we will communicate with you.  Be sure to check your Pitt email regularly.

File your FAFSA

To receive an offer of financial aid, you must first complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).  The FAFSA can be completed any time after October 1st of each year.  Please click on fafsa.gov to access the website.  Pitt-Greensburg recommends that you apply as soon as possible, as Pitt begins financial aid awarding in February.

Please use the University of Pittsburgh code: 008815 to ensure that the University of Pittsburgh receives your FAFSA information.

Your social security number is required to match your student record to your FAFSA. 

If you did not include your social security number on your application for admission, please call 724-836-7165 to supply it.
