Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)

The FAFSA for the 2025-26 year opened December 1. Apply early and every year to be eligible for maximum financial aid. All you need is your FSA ID and your 2023 tax information. You (and parents where applicable) will need to give consent to import your and your parent(s) 2023 taxes into the FAFSA. Be sure to file the FAFSA by the priority deadline of June 1 to ensure your access to the best financial aid package available.
