Financial Aid/FAFSA

IMPORTANT FAFSA INFORMATION FOR CLASS OF 2024
The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) for the 2024-25 school year is expected to open by December 31, 2023. Here are some things to do now to make sure you're ready to complete the FAFSA as soon as it opens and avoid delays.
 
  • Create a Federal Student Aid (FSA) ID at studentaid.gov
  • One parent or guardian of dependent students (Contributors) will need to create or reconfirm their own FSA ID to complete the process.
*Creating your FAFSA account early can save time in the future, since it can take up to three days before you can use your FSA ID.
 
On or After December 31, 2023
  • Begin filling out the FAFSA with your FSA ID, email, or phone number and password. You will answer questions, sign electronically, and enter your contributors' contact information in the parent section. 
  • Contributors (parent(s), stepparent, or guardian) will access the FAFSA with their own FSA IDs. They will answer questions on the FAFSA, provide consent to release tax information and sign electronically. 
**It's recommended to fill out the FAFSA shortly after it opens. Colleges will not receive the information until late January due to federal delays. Texas' Priority deadline to submit the FAFSA for full consideration of all state and other financial aid programs is March 15, 2024.
