How to Apply

Financial Aid applications must be completed annually. All students are encouraged to apply. Many times changes in circumstances, such as decreases in income or enrollment of additional family members in college can lead to eligibility for a previously ineligible student. In order to apply for financial aid, students should complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) in accordance with the priority deadlines that follow.

FAFSA’s are available at the Financial Aid Office. Applicants may also contact the Financial Aid Office by calling 617-541-5322 to request that a FAFSA be mailed to them. When completing the application, please note that the RCC Title IV code is011930. Students should retain a copy of their FAFSA form and keep all documents that were used to complete the FAFSA in an accessible place. Applicants will be notified in writing if additional documentation such as tax returns is needed.
