Step 1: Determine Your Dependency Status

Your dependency status determines what information you need to provide and affects your aid eligibility. Independent students typically qualify for more financial aid than dependent students.

Important: This status impacts your Expected Family Contribution (EFC) calculation and determines whether parental information is required.

Step 2: Create Your FSA ID

Your Federal Student Aid ID serves as your electronic signature and provides secure access to federal student aid websites. This unique credential will be used throughout your entire educational journey.

Security Note: Keep your FSA ID confidential. You'll use it to sign documents, access aid information, and make application updates.

Step 3: Complete Your FAFSA Application
