Office of Student Financial Services

Welcome to the homepage for the new Office of Student Financial Services.  The Financial Aid Office and the Student Services Center have been merged into a single operation, consolidating all the financial services previously provided by each office separately.  We hope you will find the consolidation of financial services to be more convenient and efficient when it comes to addressing your financial aid, student accounts, and billing questions and needs.

The student records & academic services previously handled by the Student Services Center have been returned to the Registrar’s Office.  On-line access to these services is still available via your Banner Self-Service.

Our Mission

The Office of Student Financial Services seeks to provide comprehensive financial education, services and support for students, families and the PLU community.

We work to accomplish our mission by assisting students and families in understanding their educational costs,  applying for financial aid funds, and exploring other possible funding options.  We assist students in navigating the financial aid application process and informing and assisting them in completing the steps necessary to receive their aid funds and communicating the policies that affect their continuing eligibility.

We work to educate students for lives of financal success through financial literacy programs, including understanding and managing student loan borrowing and personal finances.
