Submit your application online at https://studentaid.gov/ and code RMC to receive your information (002534). RMC accepts the FAFSA year-round. For priority consideration, submit the FAFSA by Jan 1.

RMC Financial Aid Office will create and send electronic personalized award offers. Schedule time with your Admissions Counselor to review your financial aid offer.
Commit, Class Registration, & Housing Assignments
By now, you’ve visited campus, reviewed financial aid and have a great feeling about RMC. Now it’s time to submit your new student deposit to solidify your seat in the incoming class. Sign up to get registered for fall classes. Once registered for classes by our VP of Enrollment, you’ll be provided with access to the housing application. Students select their own room in concert with their preferred roommate, if applicable.
