Updates on 2024-2025 FAFSA Applications and Estimated Offer Letters

Due to the significant delays in the Department of Education processing, we anticipate processing your FAFSA application in our system by the end of April. We are working diligently to process estimated award offers by the end of April to early May.


We anticipate another update from the Department of Education after May 1st. At that time, we will reprocess financial aid offers and notify you to review your updated offer in the HuskyNet Portal. Our office is dedicated to assisting our students and families with this year’s FAFSA delays.


If you have any questions, please contact our office. Thank you for your patience!

What is FAFSA?

FAFSA is the Free Application for Federal Student Aid from the U.S. government. This application is used to determine your eligibility for subsidized and unsubsidized student loans, grants, federal work study opportunities, and scholarships. Submitting the application is free and helps us to understand your financial needs. Learn Pro Tips for the 2024–25 FAFSA Form.
