Attention, Class of 2025! The FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) is your key to unlocking college scholarships, career training funding, and other valuable financial opportunities - and the deadline is April 15, 2025.
Whether you plan to attend a four-year university, a two-year college, a technical school, or enter a career training program, completing the FAFSA keeps your options open. Many scholarships, grants, and even some job training programs require a completed FAFSA to determine eligibility for funding — even if you don't plan to attend college right away. Without a FAFSA on file, you could miss out on thousands of dollars in potential aid that could support your next steps.
Plus, if you are a 21st Century Scholar, completing the FAFSA is required to maintain your scholarship eligibility for tuition assistance.
