The deadline for filing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) in Indiana is quickly approaching on Tuesday, April 15, 2025. The FAFSA helps determine the financial aid a student will receive for scholarships, grants, work-study, and loans while attending college. It is important to note that these funds are available not only at the federal level but also at the state and college level. The application is open to all students planning to attend an institution of higher education in the upcoming year.
Last year, the FAFSA underwent revisions, with each person contributing information receiving their own student aid login. To complete the application, students will need to have documents such as bank statements and tax returns at hand. Despite changes at the Department of Education, the FAFSA remains unaffected. In Indiana, only 45% of the graduating class of 2025 has completed the FAFSA application, with a slightly higher rate of 54% for 21st Century Scholars, a program that assists income-eligible families with college tuition.
Financial aid is crucial for many students pursuing higher education, making the timely completion of the FAFSA essential. Students are encouraged to submit their application before the deadline to secure the funds available to them.
