Are you looking for tools and resources to help you learn about financial aid for college?
Join us on September 25, 2021 for our "GET FAFSA Ready" Workshop!
What is federal student aid?
It’s money from the federal government that helps you pay for college, career school, or graduate school expenses. Federal student aid is available through grants, work-study funds, and loans.
How do I apply for aid?
You need to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®) form by logging in at fafsa.gov to apply online, filling it out in the myStudentAid mobile app (available in the Apple App Store or the Google Play store), or completing and mailing the FAFSA PDF.
Students and parents will need an FSA ID (account username and password) to sign the form through the mobile app and online. You’ll also use your FSA ID to access information about your financial aid on U.S. Department of Education websites. You can create an FSA ID in advance or while you fill out the FAFSA form.
When should I apply?
Each October, the FAFSA form is available for the next school year. You’ll need to reapply for aid every year you are in school.
