I Know I Can Update - FAFSA
The FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) is used to determine your eligibility for federal student aid, including loans, grants, and work-study. The FAFSA may also determine your eligibility for state and school aid as well.
Here’s What You Need to Know About the 2025-2026 FAFSA:
Anyone who provides information on your FAFSA form will be considered a contributor.
- Each contributor (student, parent, spouse) is required to provide information on the FAFSA and will need an FSA ID to access and complete their section of the application. You and each contributor should create your FSA IDs at least 3 days in advance before starting the FAFSA form.
SENIORS
Please make sure you mark these FAFSA workshop dates on your calendar. The form to register for one of the workshops is linked HERE.
