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.

Join us for a powerful Juneteenth webinar featuring selected readings and audio narratives from formerly enslaved people, focusing on their experiences upon hearing of their freedom. Through guided reflection and group discussion, we will explore the emotional weight and historical significance of these moments, while drawing connections to present-day efforts toward equity, inclusion, and progress. This session invites participants to reflect on how these voices from the past can inspire and inform our path forward. This webinar will not be recorded.
