Update on FAFSA Soft Launch

rayoffenburger

The Department of Education has provided some important updates regarding

completing the FAFSA for the 2024-2025 school year. Students and families

can complete and submit the 2024-2025 FAFSA form online by December

31 st .   The period leading up to and following December 31 st  will be considered

a soft launching period where potential issues will be monitored.

Although the FAFSA will be available, the Department of ED has stated there

is no need to rush to fill out the form immediately during this soft launch period

as improvements will be made to the process.  Planned pauses for

maintenance and possible experience improvement to the site may occur

during this soft launch.  Families should recognize that the FSA will not

transmit the information to schools until late January.
