As you may remember, the FAFSA opens on December 1st! Make sure to start preparing your parent’s 2023 tax information. You don’t have to wait- here are some things you can start doing now!
- Create your FSA ID: https://studentaid.gov/fsa-id/create-account/launch
- MAKE SURE TO SAVE THIS INFORMATION FOR FUTURE USE
- Parents must also create an FSA ID (they may already have one if you had an older sibling)
- Check which parent’s information you need to include: https://studentaid.gov/fafsa-apply/parents
- Make sure you are eligible to complete the FAFSA: https://studentaid.gov/understand-aid/eligibility/requirements/non-us-citizens
Remember the FAFSA is often the 1st step to qualify for scholarships, so even if you do not think you will qualify for federal aid, you MUST complete it.
