Federal Application for Student Aid (FAFSA)

The Federal Application for Student Aid gathers information about your financial resources and your family's resources. Please note, the following information does not apply to international undergraduate applicants. 

Once you've submitted your application, the federal aid processing center uses a congressionally mandated formula to determine your expected family contribution, the amount you and your family should be able to afford to contribute toward college expenses.

FAFSA deadlines

FAFSA tips and help 

We recommend all families submit a FAFSA. 

Many families tell our financial aid staff that they haven't filed a FAFSA because they feel they won't qualify. The truth is, everyone who files the FAFSA — everyone — is eligible to receive some form of financial aid, whether it's student employment or low-interest loans. We can't offer anything other than merit-based scholarships to students who don't file the FAFSA. It's worth the effort.
