fafsa calendar information

Beginning on Oct. 1, 2016, students will be able to fill out the FAFSA for the 2017–18 school year. (In the past, they had to wait until January 1). In addition, applicants will no longer need to estimate income and tax information and will be able to retrieve their data directly from the IRS, right from the first day the FAFSA is available. Students also will have information about their Expected Family Contributions earlier, helping them as they’re going through the college application and selection process.

February 6, 2025 | 2:00-3:00 pm ET

The Governance Committee of the ̽»¨Â¥ Board of Directors has been conducting an ongoing review of the ̽»¨Â¥ Bylaws. This process not only promotes good governance but also ensures that ̽»¨Â¥ operates effectively on behalf of its members and the institutions it serves. To streamline the bylaws and shift more operational items to the Board Handbook, the Governance Committee is proposing 18 bylaw changes. The ̽»¨Â¥ Board of Directors invites members to  before they officially vote to move them forward.

In addition to the ability to provide feedback online, ̽»¨Â¥ will host two ̽»¨Â¥ Town Halls to allow members to ask questions before the Board votes on the bylaws in February. Both town halls will cover the same information and members can register to attend whichever time is most convenient.

Webinar Dates: January 28, 2025 | 2-3 p.m.EST and February 6, 2025 | 2-3 p.m.EST*

*Both town halls cover the same information and members can register to attend whichever time is most convenient. This registration is for the February 6 town hall.
