UMass Boston

The composition of a financial aid package offered shall be consistent with the established policy of the institution’s financial aid office, regular institutional agency, office, or committee for all students and shall meet all the following criteria:  

• A member institution shall not consider athletics leadership, ability, participation, or performance as a criterion in the formulation of the financial aid package 

• The financial aid procedures used for a student-athlete shall be the same as the existing official financial aid policies of the institution 

• The financial aid package for a particular student-athlete, group of student-athletes or team of student-athletes cannot be clearly distinguishable from the general pattern of all financial aid for all recipients at the institution 

As a DIII student-athlete, you will not receive any sports-related financial aid (Bylaw 15.01.3). You are eligible to receive nonathletic financial aid that the institution distributes to the general student body.
