We know, this is the boring part but totally necessary! If you haven’t done so already, submit your 2025-26 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) using 2023 income information to apply for federal financial aid like work-study, grants, and loans.

Hot Tip: Make sure to use the Russell Sage College Federal School Code 002810.

Visit sage.edu/deposit to secure your spot. You’ll need your Student ID to make it official. You received this via email after your acceptance. If you can’t find it, no problem, reach out to us at [email protected].

Make your deposit

Make sure you’ve submitted official transcripts from any college of university you previously attended. This will notify our Registrar office so they can evaluate your transcripts and let you know what credits transfer to Sage (and you’ll know how long it will take to finish your degree)! Reach out to our dedicated transfer counselors, Ray Rodriguez or Mackenzie Martel with questions.

Contact Ray or Mackenzie: [email protected]

We can’t wait to welcome you to the college as an official student, help you get to know the college, and answer any questions you have before you start classes. Keep up with updates on our orientation page.

Accepted for Fall 2025? New Student Orientation will be in the summer.

RSVP here: June 13, July 11, July 14, August 11
