File for Financial Aid
The Free Application for Federal Student Aid ( FAFSA® ) is now available for the 2023-2024 Academic Year. New Students for the 2023–24 Academic Year should file as soon as possible. Priority FAFSA Deadline for Continuing Students for the 2023-2024 Academic Year is March 1, 2023.
To apply for financial aid for the 2023–24 academic year, students are encouraged to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form as soon as possible after October 1. Go to studentaid.gov or call 1-800-4FEDAID for more information.
The FAFSA® IS CHANGING!
2024-25 FAFSA® is scheduled for release in December of 2023 rather than the traditional timeframe of October 1st. No specific date has been set by the U.S. Department of Education for the December release. The FAFSA Simplification Act prioritized simplifying the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®) application process, resulting in changes to the 2024–25 FAFSA® form, process, and methodologies for determining eligibility for federal aid.
