The FAFSA® (Free Application for Federal Student Aid)opens Saturday, Oct. 1. The State of Texas requires students in their senior year of high school to complete the FAFSA to graduate.
When a student files the FAFSA, they may become eligible for scholarships or grants (based on need and merit), work-study programs, or low-interest loans. Some of the most beneficial financial aid funds are first-come, first-served. Students are twice as likely to receive financial help for college if they file the FAFSA early.
Before the FAFSA opens, there are a few things students and their parents/guardians can do to prepare.
The first step for both the senior and their parent/guardian is to create a Federal Student Aid (FSA) ID. The FSA ID is an electronic signature, one for the student and a different one for the parent (or shared by both parents). There is a one- to three-day time frame for processing the FSA ID, which is required to complete the FAFSA.
Tip: When completing any postsecondary planning, such as FAFSA students should use a personal, not school-related email address.
