Note: During peak processing season (March-June) our primary goal is to provide our families with a prompt award notification. In order to meet this goal, in-person advising sessions will be limited to the afternoon hours. A customer support representative is available to assist you during our regular business hours. We appreciate your patience during this high-processing time period.
