The University of Arizona recognizes the significant concerns regarding the January 27, 2025 memo from the Office of Management and Budget, including its potential impact on our students and the communities we serve.
While the full implications of this freeze remain unclear, it has been confirmed that Federal Student Aid, including Federal Pell Grant and Federal Direct Loans, will not be impacted. Thank you for your patience and support.
