Accepting your Aid
The first step in receiving financial aid is Applying for Aid. The aid process doesn't end there, however. Read below to follow any steps you may need to do to Accept your Aid.
Note: For detailed information about your financial aid offer, please see the Financial Aid Guide
Plan ahead!
Take advantage of the Expense Worksheet, which shows the direct cost of attending Marquette University, while taking into account your financial aid offer. Log in to CheckMarq and navigate to CheckMarq Student Home > Financial Aid > Accept/Decline Aid > Expense Worksheet.
View your Financial Aid Offer in CheckMarq

Select Accept from the drop down for the loans you are accepting, you have the option to reduce the loan amount if you do not need the full loan. Click or tap Submit at the top after making your selection on available loans.
