2024-25 FAFSA

The 2024-25 Free Application For Student Aid (FAFSA) is now available to complete through StudentAid.Gov. The new year's FAFSA comes with a variety of changes including a massive reduction in the number of overall questions, you will no longer be able to report parental information as an independent student (even if you wanted to) and all of your tax filing information (or non-filing information, if you did not file) will be automatically transferred into the FAFSA once you give consent. You must provide consent in order to complete the FAFSA and be eligible for federal financial aid.

For loan change requests:
