“FAFSA can be daunting the first time you file it, but we’re here to help students and families complete the process so they can access vital federal and state assistance if needed,” said UMW Dean of Admissions & Associate Vice President Melissa Yakabouski.
Students and families attending the Monday, Feb. 17 FAFSA Completion Lab are also invited to visit the Fredericksburg campus for the day at the UMW Open House. Scheduled for Presidents’ Day, the Open House offers an opportunity for high school seniors to experience student life, speak to academic program representatives, and take a campus tour.
Seniors who have applied to Mary Washington can sign-up for an expedited application review and on-the-spot decision during the Open House.
Apply with the Common App or the UMW Application online.
The Feb. 17 Open House and April 18 Open House are also open to high school sophomores and juniors and timed on school holidays to make it easy to travel to campus for the day.
Sign up for an Open House at UMW this spring 2025.
Students who complete the FAFSA may be eligible for UMW’s Tuition Promise, additional grants and awards, and financial aid. The Tuition Promise program supports Virginia students who receive a Pell grant by closing any remaining tuition gap for their undergraduate education at UMW.
