A significant factor in determining URochester need-based aid eligibility is a URochester student’s sibling(s) being enrolled in an undergraduate program simultaneously with the URochester student. In cases where having a sibling enrolled is impacting your financial aid eligibility, we require verification of your sibling’s enrollment status. To confirm that your sibling will be enrolled in an undergraduate program for the 2026-2027 academic year, you will need to submit the Sibling Enrollment Verification Form for each sibling that will be enrolled in college.<\/p>\n
The form needs to be returned to the University of Rochester\u2019s Financial Aid Office by September 4,<\/strong> 2026<\/strong>. The best options to return the form are either by email or via your FAOnline<\/strong> account.\u00a0 Instructions are provided below on how to upload the information via FAOnline<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A significant factor in determining URochester need-based aid eligibility is a URochester student’s sibling(s) being enrolled in an undergraduate program simultaneously with the URochester student.
