Application Requirements
Filing earlier than our priority filing dates is not necessary. Application requirements vary by citizenship status and enrollment/application status. Please refer to the US Department of Education for a definition of Eligible Noncitizens. Stanford considers undocumented students to be eligible noncitizens for purposes of institutional scholarship eligibility, although they are not eligible for federal student aid funds.
