Text Message Program
When you opt in to receive text messages from SFA, you will receive a message confirming your enrollment.
By opting in, you agree to receive text messages from SFA at the mobile phone number you provided. Messages may include information about your application status, eligibility, required documents, deadlines, awards, and other state financial aid matters.
Message frequency varies.
Message and Data Rates
Message and data rates may apply based on your mobile carrier and service plan. Contact your mobile carrier if you have questions about your text or data plan.
Mobile carriers are not responsible for delayed or undelivered messages.
Opting Out
You may stop receiving SFA text messages at any time by replying STOP or by using an unsubscribe link included in a message, if available.
After you opt out, you may receive a final message confirming that you have been unsubscribed.
Opting out of text messages does not affect your eligibility for state financial aid. You should continue to monitor your MAAPP Dashboard and other communications from SFA for important information regarding your application or account.
Changing Your Mobile Number
