The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is required to qualify for most federal student aid available at SUNY Orange. You must submit a FAFSA form for each academic year in which you want to be considered for federal student aid.

The 2024-2025 FAFSA and NYS TAP Application is available.

Remember, the 2024-2025 FAFSA uses financial information from 2022 so you should already have the necessary tax information. We recommend using the IRS Data Retrieval Tool (DRT) on the FAFSA to automatically transfer the data.

Once you have submitted your FAFSA, it will prompt you to "Start your State Application" if you entered that you are a New York State Resident. 

The federal deadline to submit your FAFSA for the 2024-2025 academic year is June 30, 2025.
