FAFSA This is the U.S. Department of Education's Free Application for Federal Student Aid website, commonly referred to as “FAFSA on the Web”. The FAFSA form is the standardized financial aid form used by the U.S. Department of Education to calculate your family’s EFC (Expected Family Contribution) using the Federal Methodology and is used by most U.S. colleges in calculating need-based aid. We recommend that a FAFSA form be submitted for EVERY college-bound student - no exceptions, regardless of the parent's or student's level of income and assets. It must be submitted every year to qualify for federal and state financial aid, including grants, loans and work study programs. |
