Saint Joseph's University strives to offer families the best financial aid offer possible based on information received from the FAFSA. Other family circumstances may warrant further review, and we will review an appeal if one of the following scenarios has occurred and is not reflected on taxes or your FAFSA:

• Loss of income/unemployment
• Death of a wage earner
• Significant medical expenses not covered by insurance (expenses must exceed 11% of household income to qualify)
• Other financial hardships

 Appeal requests will be considered only after an official FAFSA has been filed and families have already received a St. Joe's financial aid offer letter. Please use this Special Financial Circumstances Form to submit your appeal.

Saint Joseph’s offers a variety of student housing options, from traditional dormitories to townhouses. First- and second-year students are required to live on campus.
