Steps to Check Your Status

Regularly checking your financial aid status is a critical step in ensuring you receive your financial aid in a timely manner. You can manage all aspects of your financial aid and stay on top of your application and award status online. You may have additional requirements after your aid offer is accepted.

To view requirements and upload documents:

  1. Log into My4D and review the "Financial Aid Checklist" widget on your dashboard.
  2. Click on the "View and Submit Requirements" button.
  3. Select an aid year from the drop-down menu.
  4. Click on "Upload" next to the unsatisfied requirement.
  5. Click "Choose File" and browse to the file you wish to upload.
  6. Click the "Upload" button.
  7. Click "Submit."

 
Please allow two business days for the status of your document to reflect "pending" or "satisfied."

Frequently Asked Questions

  • I forgot my My4D login information. How do I sign in?

    The first time you sign into My4D, your password will be your six-digit birthday in the MMDDYY format. If you can't remember your password, click on the "Forgot your password?" link or contact the DU IT Help Desk at 303-871-4700 to have them reset it for you.

  • When will I receive financial aid funds?
    If all requirements are met and you are enrolled full-time (a minimum of 8 credit hours), your financial aid will be disbursed to your DU student account 10 days before the start of each term. Refunds are then generated by the Office of Student Billing two to three days after disbursement.
