Financial Aid Forms
Every academic year you attend, you must submit a FAFSA application. The FAFSA application is usually available on October 1. The deadline to complete the FAFSA is June 30 of the current academic year (e.g. June 30, 2025, is the deadline to file a FAFSA for the 2024-2025 academic year).
Requirements and forms may change from year to year. Be sure to follow the process and use the specific form for the correct school year.
