Frequently Asked Questions
What is the deadline for submitting the FAFSA?
There is not a specific deadline for submitting your FAFSA form. You can file at any time and update it when needed.
The recommended deadline to file your FAFSA is February 15. There may be deadlines associated with specific types of financial aid, such as state grants, so be sure to submit your information as early as possible. The later you complete your paperwork, the less aid you may qualify to receive.
Where do we go to file the FAFSA?
Your family can file a FAFSA at the Office of the U.S. Department of Education.
Their website also has many great resources about loans, grants, and repayment.
What Other Financial Aid Forms Need to be Submitted?
In addition to filing the FAFSA, all students must submit:
- Identity and Statement of Educational Purpose Form
- Federal Verification Worksheet
- Statement of Intentions (for Graduate Students)
These forms should be uploaded to Thomas College.
Can We See How Much Aid We May be Eligible For?
Yes! You can use our net price calculator as a guide to assist with early financial planning for college. This calculator will provide a preliminary estimate of federal, state, and institutional aid eligibility, to help you gauge what aid you may be awarded and make arrangements to cover the cost of attendance.
Where Can We Pay on the Tuition Bill from Thomas College?
You visit our payment information page for options. Payments can be made online, by mail, by calling 207-859-1421, or you can visit Student Financial Services at office AD-104A in the Ayotte Administrative Building and make a payment in person.

How Do I Read the Tuition Bill from Thomas?
Why am I being charged for student insurance and a yearbook?
All day students are charged student insurance and yearbooks, unless a waiver form is completed and returned to the SFS Office. The deadline for the waiver form is September 30th.
All Thomas College Students must have a US-Based Affordable Care Act ACA compliant insurance plan. If students would like to waive the Thomas College insurance plan they need to make sure that the plan they have is ACA compliant. Students must provide a copy of their current insurance card before Thomas student insurance is waived.
What is Thomas Colleges Title IV Code?
Our Title IV Code for the FAFSA is 002052.
What other documents do I need to submit in order to receive a financial aid award?
New accepted students, who receive an email concerning verification, receive estimated aid awards based upon the results of their FAFSA. In order to receive an actual award, you will need to submit a verification worksheet, federal tax returns and W-2 forms.
What How can I appeal my financial aid decision due to special circumstances?
If you have encountered special circumstances such as job loss, high medical bills, or, in some cases, to reinstate aid lost for not meeting academic requirements, you may fill out our financial aid appeal form. Please be prepared to provide supporting documents.
How long will it take to receive my financial aid award?
After you have filed your FAFSA, it takes between 2 and 6 weeks for your information to be sent to Thomas College. Financial aid awards for new accepted students are mailed in mid-December. Additional financial aid awards will be processed every two weeks.
What is considered full-time?
Full-time is 12 or more credits per semester.
How are Federal Direct Loans determined?
Federal Direct Loan amounts are based upon grade level. A student’s federal financial need will determine if the Federal Direct Loan is subsidized or unsubsidized.
May I choose to decline Federal Direct Loans?
Yes, you may choose to decline all or part of the loan. You are not obligated to accept any loans you do not want. However, rejecting a federal loan does not mean that it will be replaced with grant or scholarship funds.
