FAFSA FAFSA can be completed any time after January 1 st. FAFSA must be received by March 1 st in Michigan. (So send it earlier!) You will need to redo FAFSA every year you are in college, if you are receiving scholarships or loans. The most common way to apply for federal financial aid is online:

FAFSA In order to complete FAFSA online, you will need to create an FSA ID (Federal Student Aid ID)

FAFSA You will need your parents’ tax information for FAFSA. You have two options: 1. Wait until your parents have their W-2 tax forms returned and then fill out FAFSA. 2. You can estimate your parents’ income on FAFSA, but you will have to go back in with the information once the tax forms are available.

FAFSA Use the FAFSA on the Web Worksheet to help you prepare for filing FAFSA online.

HELP WITH FAFSA Do you and your family need help? Here are some places to go: 1. Call FAFSA for help ( FED-AID) 2. Go online and ask for help ( College Goal Sunday!!!!
