Merit-Aid Charge Priority Values

During the financial aid disbursement process, Charge Priorities are values that determine which charges are covered on students’ accounts and the order in which the charges are paid. A default Charge Priority value is setup for each Financial Aid Item Type (FAIT). If applicable, a FAIT’s default Charge Priority can be changed when entering a financial aid award.

Note: This document lists the Charge Priorities awarding offices should use for merit-based awards. It excludes those used only by the School of Nursing. Refer to the All Charge Priority Values for a list of all Charge Priorities.
