The 2027-2028 FAFSA has opened early! If you need assistance completing the FAFSA for the 27-28 academic year, we are here to help!

Both the student and a parent will need to have their own FSA ID and password to complete the FAFSA.

Parents: if you have created an FSA ID in the past, it will be the same account. These are tied to your social security number and you cannot have multiple accounts! If you do not remember your account - the website does have a forgot my username/forgot my password account recovery link.

JUST IN 📣 Federal Student Aid (FSA) has announced that the 2027-28 is now available for all students and contributors: https://ow.ly/UCqM50ZQywF
