FAFSA Fridays
Get ready to complete your 2023-2024 FAFSA form.
- The FAFSA became available on Oct. 1, 2022.
- The FAFSA will collect income information from the 2021 tax year.
It’s that time of year again. There’s a cool, crispness in the air, multi-colored leaves in the trees, football and pumpkin spice lattes have returned.
It’s time to fill out the FAFSA.
Lucky for you, we’re available throughout the month of October to help you fill out the FAFSA for the 2023-2024 academic year. This service is available to anyone, not just current students. You can join one of the virtual sessions below or drop by the Mocs One Center for assistance.
FAFSA Fridays will continue every Friday through the month of October. Stop by our Virtual Zoom and receive help from a FAFSA expert.
It is important to complete your FAFSA early as some funding is limited.
