Federal Student Aid
Federal Student Aid
Federal student aid from the Department of Education covers such expenses as tuition and fees, housing and food, books and supplies, and transportation. Aid can also help pay for other related expenses, such as a computer and dependent care. Thousands of schools across the country participate in the federal student aid programs; ask the schools you’re interested in whether they do!
Apply for federal student aid—grants, work-study, and loans—using the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®) form. And remember, the first F in “FAFSA” stands for “free”—you shouldn’t pay to fill out the FAFSA form!
The FAFSA form you fill out should correspond with the school year you’re planning to seek aid for. For example, if you’re applying for financial aid for the 2025‒26 school year, fill out the 2025‒26 FAFSA form. Likewise, if you’re applying for financial aid for the 2024‒25 school year, fill out the 2024‒25 FAFSA form. If you plan to take summer classes, contact your school's financial aid office to determine which FAFSA form you should fill out.
You can estimate your eligibility for federal student aid and your Student Aid Index with our Federal Student Aid Estimator. Be sure to use the tool before you fill out the FAFSA form.
