If you or your dependent will receive the CMU tuition benefit, the Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid (OSFA) is required to include the amount of the benefit as a financial aid resource on the financial aid notice. The
tuition benefit will reduce need-based aid dollar for dollar. Need-based CMU grant funds will be reduced or canceled first. Work-study and/or a subsidized Direct Loan must also be reduced if the amount of benefit exceeds your demonstrated financial need as determined by the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. Please contact the OSFA at (989) 774-3674 if you have questions concerning this policy.
