An Introduction to Financial Aid

Before applying for financial aid you must first create a FSA ID. Students and borrowers are required to use a FSA ID, made up of a user name and password, to access certain U.S. Department of Education websites. Your FSA ID is used to confirm your identity when accessing your financial aid information and electronically signing your federal student aid documents.

To apply for federal financial aid, complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).  You will login to the FAFSA website using the FSA ID you created above.
