When should I begin to apply for financial aid?
Apply for financial aid as soon as possible if you are a high school senior. Submit your college applications by the college’s priority scholarship deadline (often the same as the Early Action deadline). Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) as soon as possible after it opens on October 1st. Complete the CSS Profile (if required) as soon as possible after it opens on October 1st. Contact your school counselor or college and career coordinator for assistance submitting your FAFSA and/or other financial aid application materials.
How do I complete the FAFSA?
First, create a StudentAid.gov account (FSA ID). Then, start your FAFSA here. Contact your school counselor or college and career coordinator for assistance with your FAFSA.
