We recommend all new students explore their federal student aid options. Completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form helps determine your eligibility for funds, including grants and student loans.10 When applying, the first step in the process is to create a Federal Student Aid ID (FSA ID) number. This will give you access to the Federal Student Aid online systems and can serve as your legal signature.

SAVE MONEY TO GET YOU STARTED

It’s important to plan ahead, especially for those students who are relocating to attend UTI. Creating a budget and a savings plan will make your transition to school easier, so calculate your anticipated costs and begin setting aside money each month. We recommend you have at least $1,500 to $2,000 in savings before school begins.
