Do not miss out on money. If you haven’t completed your 2024-25 FAFSA and need assistance, Shippensburg University’s Office of Financial Aid is holding several FAFSA Completion Workshops on campus this April. Pennsylvania residents must complete the FAFSA no later than May 1 for PA State Grant consideration.

New this year – on the 2024–25 FAFSA, every contributor (you, your spouse, a biological or adoptive parent or your parent’s spouse) is required to provide information on the FAFSA form and will need an FSA ID account (username and password) before accessing and completing their section of the online form. So, please try to have these accounts set up prior to attending any FAFSA Completion Workshops, but if not, we can still help you. 

The 2024-25 FAFSA will use every contributor’s 2022 federal tax information, which now is being automatically pulled from the IRS. There still may be some financial information you have to enter manually, so have those documents available if needed.

If you don’t need assistance to file your 2024-25 FAFSA, log in online at www.studentaid.gov with your FSA ID. We highly recommend getting your FAFSA done as soon as possible, even though financial aid packages are being delayed across the country by the U.S. Department of Education. All students will be notified of their financial aid award packages once we get the FAFSA from the U.S. Department of Education and are able to process them later this spring. For Pennsylvania residents, PHEAA will notify you by email when the PA State Grant application can be completed.
