Don't Delay, Do Your FAFSA Today!

FAFSA is the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. You can start filing the FAFSA on October 1st for the upcoming academic year.

The Maryland State priority deadline for FAFSA applications is March 1st of each year for the following academic year that begins in the fall. 

Important Note for IRS Data Retrieval:

When you apply online, you will be given an option to retrieve tax information through the IRS Data Retrieval Tool (DRT). Tax information retrieved will automatically populate, although it will not be viewable to the applicant.  Items transferred will say "Transferred from the IRS".  Click here for IRS Data Retrieval Tool instructions.
