Free Application for Federal Student Aid

The long awaited FAFSA opened on 12/30/2023. The state of Texas made completing and submitting the FAFSA a graduation requirement. Please keep this in mind as we move closer to graduation. If your FAFSA submission has not been reported to MISD by the day graduation tickets are distributed, you will not be able to receive your tickets. To submit your FAFSA, click here. If you would like to go ahead and take care of this graduation requirement but have not submitted your FAFSA or do not plan to submit the FAFSA, you may turn in the Financial Aid Application Opt-Out Form (Spanish version). The good news is that even if you submit the opt-out form, you are still able to fill out the FAFSA later!
