What is FAFSA?


The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is the form you need to fill out to get any financial aid from the federal government to help pay for college. Each year, over 13 million students who file the FAFSA get more than $120 billion in grants, work-study, and low-interest loans from the U.S. Department of Education.

Many states and colleges also use the FAFSA to determine which students get financial aid—and how much they’ll get.

FAFSA Facts

  • Submitting the FAFSA is the most important thing you can do if you want financial aid.
  • The FAFSA is free—you don’t need to pay anyone to prepare it for you.
  • You need to submit a new FAFSA before each academic year in which you want to get aid. If you plan to apply for aid throughout college, you’ll need to fill out the FAFSA each year. 
  • Be sure to use a permanent email address on the form, not your high school email, so you can use your FAFSA account throughout college.
  • Students in the class of 2024 attending college in the fall of 2024 and other students completing the FAFSA will not be able to complete it until December 2023 instead of October when it usually opens.

Asking for a letter of recommendation from teachers: 


The best way to ask is to simply ask. Find a time when your teacher isn't busy and ask them directly. Don't go with friends, and try to avoid emailing. Be sure to send them any information your teacher may need to write the recommendation and give them plenty of time to complete it (at least 2 weeks).


  • activities you are involved in-in and out of school, 
  • hobbies,
  • community service, 
  • if you work, summer camps
  • Passions and desires in and after college
