Your student will receive their financial aid offer by email with instructions on how to accept, modify or view their financial awards (including federal aid, state aid and university scholarships) in FlashLine.

• First-time federal loan borrowers: Your student must sign the Master Promissory Note and complete entrance counseling to receive federal aid. During entrance counseling, they will learn about direct loans, budgeting, repayment options and rights as a borrower. To use federal aid for extra costs, your student must complete the Title IV authorization.
• Returning federal loan borrowers: Monitor federal loan borrowing, view loan history and find servicer information on StudentAid.gov. Your student must report outside scholarships, awards and other tuition assistance they are bringing to Kent State on the Offer tab of their Financial Aid Dashboard in FlashLine.
