FAFSA
FAFSA: It is the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, and we encourage all seniors to complete and submit! Below are links and resources to assist you in the process.
The 2024–25 FAFSA form is open!
Did you miss the Missouri FAFSA April 1 priority deadline? Don’t worry! Each institution has its own priority deadline. Consult the financial aid office at your college to find out about their deadlines. Also, the final federal deadline to file the FAFSA for the 2024-25 academic school year is June 30, 2024, to file a FAFSA. Learn more: mofafsa.org
Missouri has extended the final deadline to June 1st. If students submit the FAFSA after April 1 but before June 1, and qualify, they will receive an award amount based on available funding. Students who file before June 1 will have until July 31 to make any FAFSA corrections.
