Historical Note

In 1893, all types of financial aid was determined by the Registrar. In 1907, the Dean of the college determined the financial aid packages of students. After 1933, the Director of the Appointment Bureau was in charge of financial aid. In 1958, both the Director of the Appointment Bureau and the Director of Scholarships determined the financial aid packages. Beginning in July of 1963, the position of Director of Financial Aid was established. The Director of Financial Aid worked out of the Office of the Academic Dean and later the Office of the Dean of the Faculty. In 1975, the Office of Financial Aid was formally established as a separate office. In 1994, the Financial Aid Office merged with several other offices to form the Office of Financial Services.
