FAFSA Simplification
的 FAFSA Simplification Act represents a significant overhaul of the processes and systems used to award federal student aid starting with the 2024–2025 award year (Fall 2024 – Summer 2025). 这 includes the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form, need analysis, and many policies and procedures for schools that participate in federal student aid 项目.
We understand financial aid changes can be challenging to navigate, but 网赌正规真人实体在线平台 is here to help you through the process! New application updates will be shared as they become 可用.
What about WASFA?
的 Washington Application for State 金融援助 (WASFA) for 2024-2025 has been updated with similar changes to the FAFSA application simplifying the information requested and the user experience. For more information please visit the WASFA网站.
What is Changing?
的 SAI measures the student and/or family’s ability to pay for college. 新的需求 analysis formula allows for a potential SAI as low as -1500 and implements a separate eligibility criterion for determining Federal Pell Grant eligibility.
Expanded eligibility based on family size (not including number in college) and federal poverty level will allow for more students to receive Federal Pell Grants.
With the 2024-2025 FAFSA you will see and hear words such as “contributor” (anyone who is asked to provide information on the FAFSA like a parent or spouse) and “consent” (each required contributor will be required to consent to their information being included on the FAFSA).
Please watch Federal Student Aid’s FAFSA Simplification YouTube video regarding upcoming changes to the FAFSA.
