Step-by-Step Process
Filing the FAFSA
Step 1: File the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) as soon as possible after October 1. The filing deadline for priority consideration is December 1. When completing your FAFSA, we strongly recommend provide consent to securely transfer your tax information directly from the IRS. This helps ensure accuracy and may speed up processing.
Step 2: Receive Financial Aid Offer. First year and incoming transfer students will receive this information in the mail.
