The U.S. 教育部做了很多 changes and simplifications to the FAFSA this year. 以下是一些主要的更新:
- The form was simplified，减少了你需要回答的问题数量
- The student, their spouse, and all parents/guardians with tax data being reported must have their own FSA ID/StudentAid.gov account
- Access was expanded for Federal Pell Grants
- 较高入息保障津贴 will result in lower expectations for student or family income to be able to pay for college
- Families are now required to 报告他们农场或企业的价值， 这将影响联邦援助的计算方式
- There is 不再是兄弟姐妹在大学里的福利—the FAFSA will no longer consider the number of individuals in a household attending college when determining the amount of aid
第一步是确保每个人都有自己的助学金.gov account/FSA ID. 学生和所有贡献者都需要自己的账户, so setting these up in advance will streamline your ability to fill out the FAFSA.
- 如果你没有提交2023-24年的FAFSA表格，一定要提交 create your StudentAid.gov account. Remember your username and password so you can fill out the 2024-25 FAFSA when it opens!
- Find out if your parents/guardians or spouse will need to be contributors based on your dependency status.
- If your parents/guardians or spouse will need to contribute to your form, make sure each contributor creates their own StudentAid.gov account.
If the student is a dependent and their parents/guardians filed taxes jointly, 只需要一个父母作为供款人，并需要一个FSA ID. 如果学生的父母/监护人没有共同报税, 两者都被认为是贡献者，必须有自己的FSA id.
您将使用2022年的税务信息填写2024-25年的FAFSA.
FAFSA通常使用上一年的税务信息. 尽管FAFSA今年的开放时间比往年晚, 确保你使用了2022年的纳税信息.
Due to this year's changes, the U.S. Department of Education has stated that there will be delays in transferring information from the FAFSA to colleges.
We expect to release award offers for traditional undergraduate students in April. Students in our block programs will need to register before a financial aid award will be sent.
While the FAFSA seems very daunting, it really isn’t as scary as you might think! I was able to get an amazing academic scholarship based off my high school grades, a music scholarship, 还有一份勤工俭学的工作.
