Financial Aid FAQ

How will my financial aid be disbursed?

Financial Aid and/or Scholarship awards will be automatically applied to the student’s NMSU account through the University Accounts Receivable Office. Any funds remaining, after paying university expenses, will be available to the student through direct deposit or check. Students may sign up for direct deposit through my.nmsu.edu. Students that do not elect to have direct deposit may pick up their checks at the Business Office.

Why have I not received my financial aid?

Financial aid cannot be dispersed until your finanical aid file is complete.  Students can review the status of their financial aid through their my.nmsu.edu and/or by contacting the Financial Aid office.  To avoid delay, students should complete their financial aid files accurately and early.  Students who have not been awarded financial aid must make payment arrangements at the Business Office.

Is there a cut-off date to sign up for classes and receive financial aid?

There is a cut-off date to add classes for financial aid purposes and that date will be posted at the financial aid counter each semester.  Grant and loan financial aid for the first and second eight week sessions will be paid at the beginning of the 16 week semester.  Financial aid may not pay for courses added after the cut-off date.

What if I don’t attend my classes?

Students who are paid financial aid and do not attend classes will be liable for all tuition and fees and may be required to repay all or a portion of the financial aid.  If you do not attend classes you will NOT be automatically withdrawn from the university.  To officially withdraw please go to the Admissions office.

Am I required to be degree seeking to receive financial aid?

To receive financial aid, students must be degree seeking with the NMSU-A Admissions Office.

Are there classes that financial aid will not pay for?

Financial aid will not pay for audit courses or undergraduate courses for which a grade of “C” or better (or grade of “S” if applicable) has already been received.

Am I required to notify the Financial Aid office if I receive additional resources?

Students must notify the Office of Student Financial Aid of any and all additional resources:  scholarships, tuition waivers, stipends, WIA, DVR, state or federal awards, and others.  All financial aid offers are subject to revision due to changes in policy, law, regulations, or errors of funding.  The student is responsible to repay excess funds disbursed due to any of these reasons.

What is the minimum number of credits that I can enroll in and receive a loan disbursement?

Students receiving loan awards must be enrolled in at least six credit hours.

Are there special requirements of a first time borrower?

First time borrowers must complete an online Debt Management session and Master Promissory Note at www.nmsu.edu/finaid prior to loan disbursement.

Will my academic progress affect my financial aid?

Satisfactory academic progress will be monitored to determine eligibility for financial aid.  Satisfactory Academic Progress includes:  maintaining a cumulative grade average of 2.0 for undergraduate students; a completion rate of 66/67% of all attempted credit hours and a maximum time frame to complete a degree (usually 99 attempted credit hours for an associate degree).  Contact the Financial Aid office for further details.

Frequently Asked Questions:

  • Am I eligible to receive the Montgomery G.I. Bill? To find out if you are eligible for the Montgomery GI Bill you may call 1-888-GIBILL-1 (1-888-442-4551) to speak with a Veterans Benefits Counselor.
  • I am eligible for the GI Bill.  What do I do next? If you are eligible for the GI Bill please come visit the Financial Aid/VA office at NMSU Alamogordo in the Student Services building or contact us at (575) 439-3632.  We will help you apply for your benefits and provide more information.
  • How soon should I start the application process to receive my benefits? It is recommended that you begin the application process early, since it can take some time to finish.
  • I have used my GI Bill at another school, but I want to start taking classes at NMSU Alamogordo.  Do I still need to visit the VA/Financial Aid office? Yes, we need to process a transfer form in order to certify your attendance.
  • If I drop a class will it affect my VA Benefits? Dropping a class can affect each student differently.  It is important that every student contact the VA/Financial Aid Office any time there is a change to your schedule.
  • I am currently getting funding from the GI Bill.  Can I also receive financial aid at the same time? You may apply for financial aid while receiving GI BIll benefits.  To apply for grants and loans visit the FAFSA website at www.fafsa.ed.gov and then follow up with us within 5 - 10 business days.
  • I have been attending class for two months, why haven’t I received any money? If at any time you think you are not receiving the proper amount of money or you find you are not receiving any money at all contact us immediately so that we may research the issue for you. 
  • Is it true that I have to contact the VA every month in order to keep receiving my payments for the semester? This is the case for some students on the GI Bill.  Call us to find out if this applies to you. If you know you need to do this, but forgot how: Call 1-877-823-2378 on the last day of each month.
  • I applied for the GI Bill and have started taking classes.  How and when should I expect my first payment? Usually the VA pays every month for the previous month attended and usually students choose what type of payment (either check or automatic deposit) they want during the application process. Expect a payment by the middle of the month.
  • I am in the Guard.  Can I receive my Tuition Assistance and my GI Bill at the same time? Yes.  But make sure to research this before you do it because in some cases it may be better to use them separately.
  • Can I apply for the GI Bill as a non-degree seeking student? You can apply for the GI Bill as a non-degree seeking student as long as you change to degree seeking before your third semester. For questions on changing to degree-seeking, contact the Admission and Records office at (575) 439-3700.
  • I’m still Active Duty but I will be getting out soon.  How soon should I start applying for my GI Bill benefits? It is okay to apply early however we recommend that you wait to use your benefits until you separate from the military.
  • Is there a certain number of credits that I need to take each semester in order to receive my GI Bill benefits? There is no minimum requirement for the number of classes you take; however, the amount of funding you receive does depend on how many classes you take.
