Common Checklist Requirements For:

Priority Deadline

Priority Deadline for Continuing Yale Students : April 1

For students who complete their financial aid applications by the priority deadline, offers are typically released in late May or early June, in advance of the July 1 term bill. 

If you miss the deadline, you are still eligible to apply for financial aid, and your offer will not be reduced because of late submission. Please work to complete your aid application as soon as possible to ensure you and your family have time to plan for the upcoming academic year.
