* Some funds are automatically accepted and do not give the option to accept or decline. Funds such as scholarships may be automatically accepted. You do not need to try to accept these funds. They are accepted for you.
** You may choose to accept less than the offered amount of a fund, particularly on student loans.
If you need to contact the Office of Student Financial Assistance to request child care expenses, decline a semester of aid, add summer aid, add an aid resource not listed on your award, accept previously declined awards, or request other changes to your award, please use the message portion of your award on MyState or use Ask a Counselor.
