Aid for Undocumented Students
If you are an undocumented student, DACA recipient or DREAMer, although you cannot complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), there are types of aid available for you! Make sure you connect with the Office of Admissions regarding all merit scholarship opportunities open to all students who apply to Regis University. The Office of Admissions may also give you contact information for other departments on campus that have merit scholarship opportunities for gifted students, such as Honors, Music and Athletics.
Asset Application Form
All DREAMers are encouraged to complete our Asset Application. This form is similar to the FAFSA and allows our office to review your financial information and determine a Student Aid Index (SAI) number without the FAFSA.
After completing our Asset Application, please also make sure to submit our Colorado Residency Form (www.regis.edu/faforms). Based on your ASSET application information and your residency status, we may be able to offer a Colorado Student Grant depending on your eligibility and funding availability. ASSET Application filers must make sure to renew their application annually by our March 1 priority financial aid filing deadline.
Please note: DACA/Asset students are not eligible for the College Opportunity Fund (COF) stipend at Regis University. Per the state of Colorado guidelines, at a private institution, students must complete a FAFSA, receive a Federal Pell Grant, be a Colorado Resident, and have graduated from a Colorado High School to qualify for COF.
Work-Study
If you have a social security card for work authorization purposes, you could be eligible for a work-study award at Regis University. When you complete your Asset Application and submit it to the Office of Financial Aid, you will work with your financial aid counselor to ensure the work-study award is included as part of your financial aid offer.
External Scholarships
We encourage all students (prospective and current) to apply for external scholarships. External scholarships are not awarded through Regis University but through other organizations. Here are a few links for external scholarships specifically for DREAMers:

'Go forth and set the world on fire.'
