2. The FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) - Set to open Mid/End of December of 2023 for seniors.
The FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) opens October 1st each school year. Families complete the FAFSA during the students' final year in high school.
The FAFSA determines whether students are eligible for federal loans, grants or work-study programs. All families should complete a FAFSA, regardless of income. Many schools require it to be on file to be considered for their own need-based or merit-based aid packages even if the student doesn't qualify for federal funding.
The application opens October 1st every year and students are encouraged to apply ASAP to be considered for the most amount of funding.
