We recommend creating your Federal Student Aid (FSA) ID, if you have not done so already.
Students and Contributors will be required to create their own unique FSA ID which can take upwards of 2 weeks. This process must be completed in order to begin the FAFSA application process.
Additional information about this process and who is considered a contributor is available to you now on studentaid.gov.
A contributor for the 2024-2025 is the student, the parent/s, stepparent/s, and/or spouse. Each contributor will need a FSA ID.
To assist with identifing who your contributor is, please refer to the image to the right.
Additional information about contributors, can be found on studentaid.gov.
All FAFSA filers (new incoming students and continuing students) will be required to submit the 2024-2025 application in its entirety. Continuing students will not be permitted to "renew" the prior year's FAFSA.
Before you start filling out the 2024-2025 application, gather all necessary documentation for easy access to items such as names, birthdates, Social Security numbers (SSN), driver's license and 2022 federal tax information.
