FAFSA Information

FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) will not open until December, two months later than usual. The delay comes from a significant overhaul of the federal form students use to apply for financial aid to help pay for college. An exact date in December has not been announced yet.

Columbus High School will host our annual FAFSA Workshops. The dates will be announced in December. We will host the first FAFSA Workshop night in January.

Here is what parents can do now:

1. Please go to studentaid.gov to create your FSA ID. This can be done now. Only one parent/guardian needs to do this.

2. You will need your 2022 tax information to complete the FAFSA.

Be on the lookout for more information!
