Undergraduate Financial Aid Application Webinar

SFS presented a webinar about the 2025-2026 financial aid application process for continuing undergraduate students on February 10, 2025.   The webinar included details about the 2025-2026 financial aid application process for continuing students, how last year's FAFSA changes are affecting this year's application, the appeal process, emergency funding, and other related topics.  The recording can be viewed online.

Cash Payments

Until further notice, Brandeis will not accept cash payments. We continue to receive e-check and credit card payments through the Student Account Center. Review our payment options for more information.

We also coordinate all hourly on-campus student employment and maintain an up-to-date listing of all available on- and off-campus job opportunities.
