A university education is an investment with lifelong benefits, but we understand that the idea of being solely responsible for such an investment can be daunting. At PBU, we do all we can to help you afford an opportunity to study at a high-quality, private institution. We partner with you to find every financial resource available to you.
Our financial aid counselors can provide comprehensive answers to families with questions about financing a University education. These professionals will assist you with the details of the financial aid application process and explain the requirements for each aid program.

Applying for Financial Aid
To qualify for any aid beyond merit-based scholarships, all PBU students who wish to receive financial assistance must complete and submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). PBU’s federal school code is 003351. The Financial Aid Office will contact you if any further documentation is required.
We encourage you to fill out your FAFSA as soon as possible after January 1 of the calendar year in which you plan to attend school and need aid, and preferably by our priority deadline of February 15. Filing as soon as you can allows us to offer you the best possible Financial Aid award in a timely manner.
You must be admitted to the University to receive a need-based financial aid award.
