The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is a form that students in the United States must complete in order to apply for federal student financial aid. The FAFSA collects information about the student’s family’s income and assets, which is then used to determine the student’s eligibility for financial aid.
The FAFSA is available online and can be completed by students and their families. The deadline to submit the FAFSA is June 30th. However, students are encouraged to submit the FAFSA as early as possible, as some states have earlier deadlines.
