Because of comprehensive federal changes to the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and the processes and terminology associated with that application through the FAFSA Simplification Act, we anticipate the FAFSA will be available in December 2023 for students who are applying for admission for Fall 2024.
- If you have not visited campus, schedule a visit. We welcome you anytime!
- Complete and submit the necessary Enrollment Forms.
- Confirm your intention to enroll by submitting your enrollment deposit by May 1.
- Receive and accept (or decline) portions of your Financial Aid Offer; sign and return it to the Office of Student Financial Services.
- IMPORTANT: Send official final transcripts from your high school or transfer institution showing either the date of high school graduation or, for transfers, the completion of your transfer coursework.
- Make plans to attend New Student Orientation.
- Stretch those Hawk wings and congratulate yourself on making a great decision for your future!

Home Sweet Huntingdon Open Houses
for Deposited Students
Home Sweet Huntingdon Open Houses are special days set aside for deposited students to enjoy some time in your new college home. The schedule allows you (your family is welcome, as well) to share a meal in the dining hall; put on comfy walking shoes and tour the campus and residence halls; meet some of your new classmates; talk with current students, faculty, and coaches; and ask any questions you’d like to ask. Relax and make yourself at home! Please choose one of the available dates: Thursday, June 20, 2024, or Wednesday, July 17, 2024. Attending a Home Sweet Huntingdon event will also help you get a head start on fall semester, completing most of the paperwork and eliminating some of the steps you would otherwise have at check-in. Don’t miss HSH!
