The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is a form that students and families complete to apply for financial aid for college, career school, or graduate school. It determines eligibility for federal grants, work-study programs, and low-interest student loans, as well as state and institutional aid.
Completing the FAFSA is important because it can make higher education more affordable by unlocking financial support that reduces out-of-pocket costs for tuition, fees, and other expenses.
