Fall 2024 Admitted Students Deposit Deadline Extended to June 1

We understand that the delays with the FAFSA are creating compressed timelines, and you may not have the information you need to be making an informed college decision by the May 1st national deposit deadline. To accommodate these delays, we will be extending our deposit deadline until June 1.

With the changes and delays to the FAFSA, the McDaniel Financial Aid team wants to keep you informed. We will be communicating with our students and their families as more information becomes available. For the most up to date information, visit our FAFSA Simplification Page.
