Have you been offered financial aid by the Office of Student Financial Services? Did you know you are required to accept, decline, or reduce the aid offered by activating your Financial Aid Notification within 21 days of the date of receiving it?

Failure to do so could result in the cancellation of your financial aid offer. Keep in mind that if you are offered grants or Work-Study, this cancellation may not be reversible.

The FAN allows you to report changes in hours enrolled, additional resources and/or scholarships received. If you or your financial aid counselor make a revision to your financial aid award amounts, you will be required to submit a new FAN to acknowledge the changes.

To begin the FAN activation process, you must have already been awarded financial aid and you must have an upgraded UT EID. To learn how to upgrade your UT EID or to obtain your password information, use the UT EID Self-Service Tools.
