Five Easy Steps to Financial Aid
Step
1
Apply for financial aid by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or Dream Act Application by the priority deadline of March 2, 2023 for the 2023-2024 application and May 2, 2024 for the 2024-2025 application.
Fullerton College School Code is 001201.
Select IRS Data Retrieval Tool in order to expedite the processing of your financial aid file.
Step
2
Carefully review your FAFSA Submission Summary (FSS).
Your FSS will provide basic estimates about your eligibility for student aid, but it is not a financial aid offer. Students may access their FSS on their StudentAid.gov dashboard.
Step
3
Complete any additional requirements for the 2024-2025 school year by the priority deadline of June 30, 2024.
