​FAFSA Open Period Continues: This is a reminder that the 2022-23 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) period is now available for students and parents. FAFSA enables students to be considered for federal student aid. In addition, states and colleges use FAFSA information to award their own grants, scholarships, and loans. Some states and schools may have limited funds, so it’s important for students to apply early. This form is the first step to applying for federal and state financial aid.  For the FAFSA form and more information, visit studentaid.gov/fafsa-app/roles​.
