What Does Financial Aid Cover?
Financial aid may be utilized to cover the full Cost of Attendance (COA). The maximum amount of financial aid (including scholarships, loans and any other known resources excluding Veterans Benefits) for which you are eligible is limited to the total COA. The total COA varies based on where you reside and if you will be receiving federal loans. Note: You cannot receive financial aid (including student loans) during periods of non-enrollment (e.g., before the start of your program).
Direct costs include:
- Tuition and fees billed each semester
- Darden PT MBA case fees
- Darden PT MBA Meals Fees
- Domestic Residency Meals and Lodging
- Global Residency charges (if applicable)
Indirect costs include:
- Room
- Board
- Miscellaneous personal living expenses
- Books and computer
- Federal loan fees, if federal loans are borrowed
- Transportation costs to and from classes
- Travel to and from the Global Residency (if applicable)
- Some meals during the Global Residency (if applicable)
- Fees for Visa Services (if applicable)
You must apply for financial aid on an annual basis. Your current financial aid application only covers the COA for the 2024–2025 academic year (Fall 2024 and Spring 2025 semesters). Students are encouraged to mark their calendar to reapply for financial aid in December 2024 for the 2025–2026 academic year (Summer 2025, Fall 2025 and Spring 2026 semesters).
Financial aid funds accepted in excess of the direct costs will be refunded to you by the University at the beginning of each semester.

- Note: If an ACH/direct deposit fails for any reason, Accounts Payable reissues the refund as a paper check to the mailing address on record in SIS. Please allow at least 5-15 business days from the date of reissue for the check to arrive. Reasons for ACH/direct deposit failure include but are not limited to: "Bank Account Closed" or "No Bank Account/Cannot Locate" or "Insufficient Bank Details in SIS."
Paper Checks:
