Undocumented Students Application Instructions
Undocumented students wishing to apply for financial aid at Northwestern should submit the College Scholarship Service (CSS) Profile application and federal tax returns or a Non-Tax Filer Statement, along with documentation of household income. Additional materials may be requested, as needed. The Financial Aid Committee will use these forms to establish the family contribution and to determine eligibility for Northwestern need-based scholarship assistance.Since undocumented students are not eligible for federal and state financial aid, the family may be expected to manage this shortfall.
We encourage you to contact our office if you have any questions or would like to discuss your circumstances with a financial aid counselor.
