Free Application for Federal Student Aid
Attention: HS Seniors, College Students and Parents
The new 2023-24 FAFSA form is here! Some states and schools have limited funds, so don’t delay!
Completing this form in a timely and thorough manner is one of the most important steps you will take in your college preparation journey.
FAFSA is used to determine your family's Expected Family Contribution (EFC), the amount your family is expected to contribute to your education for one academic year, and should be completed every year you are attending college. The college will use this information along with the college's Cost of Attendance to determine your "financial need" and award package.
For priority consideration, submit your application by Jan. 15, 2023. Additional forms may be required. Private and two-year institutions may have different deadlines. Check with your financial aid administrator.
