To be considered for federal student aid for the 2017-2018 award year, you can complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) between October 1, 2016 and midnight Central Time, June 30, 2018. Any corrections or updates must be submitted by midnight Central Time, September 15, 2018.

However, many states and colleges have earlier deadlines for applying for state and institutional financial aid. Please check with our Financial Aid office to verify our  deadlines.

Because  state and college deadlines vary, it is highly recommended that you fill out the FAFSA as soon as you can after October 1 to ensure that you do not miss out on available aid.  Don't forget to include our school code - 042190
