2025–2026 FAFSA is Now Available
Students planning to enroll in Fall 2025, Spring 2026, and/or Summer 2026 will need to complete the 2025-2026 FAFSA in order for their financial aid eligibility to be determined. Completing the FAFSA early ensures consideration for as many financial aid awards as possible as some funds have limited availability or are available on a first come, first served basis. Stay up to date on FAFSA news.
2024-2025 FAFSA
The FAFSA application has received a significant update and is now available to complete. See Changes are Coming for the 2024-25 FAFSA for more information.
Federal Student Aid periodically addresses known issues as they come to surface. See 2024–25 FAFSA Issue Alerts for status updates and resources related to the 2024–25 FAFSA launch.
