  • The student, their spouse, 和 all parents/guardians with tax data being reported must have 他们自己的FSA ID/学生援助.政府账户

第一步是确保每个人都有自己的助学金.政府账户/FSA ID. 学生和所有贡献者都需要自己的账户, so setting these up in advance will streamline your ability to fill out the FAFSA. 

  1. 如果你没有提交2023-24年的FAFSA表格,一定要提交 创建你的助学基金.政府账户. Remember your username 和 password so you can fill out the 2024-25 FAFSA when it opens!

您将使用2022年的税务信息填写2024-25年的FAFSA.

FAFSA通常使用上一年的税务信息. 尽管FAFSA今年的开放时间比往年晚, 确保你使用了2022年的纳税信息.

由于今年的变化,美国的财政状况将有所改善.S. Department of Education has 状态d that there will be delays in transferring information from the FAFSA to colleges.

We expect to release award offers for traditional undergraduate students in April. Students in our block programs will need to register before a financial aid award will be sent.
