The NEW BETTER FAFSA is coming this Fall. If you have filled out the FAFSA before, please be on the look out for information sessions and news about the changes as they are released. If you are new to filling out the FAFSA, we will have information sessions for you, too!
For students enrolling in college for the 2024/25 school year, the FAFSA opening date is estimated to be December 2023 (not October as it has been in the past)
Mark your calendars for October 17th, 2023 for CFNC's Financial Aid Night

FAFSA stands for The Free Application for Federal Student Aid. This is a form that must be filled out by all students applying for need-based financial aid. Applications can be submitted for the 2020-2021 school year beginning October 1st, 2020. The FAFSA can determine whether you qualify for different forms of aid such as Federal Pell Grants, state aid, or private aid.
