FAFSA Simplification Information

This page serves as a repository for all information, guidance, and training related to implementation of the FAFSA Simplification Act and the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®) portion of the Fostering Undergraduate Talent by Unlocking Resources for Education (FUTURE) Act

Together, these laws represent a significant overhaul of federal student aid including a relaunch of the FAFSA form, changes to need analysis, the creation of a direct data exchange with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to facilitate completing the FAFSA form, and updates to many policies and procedures for schools that participate in the Title IV programs.
