In accordance with Texas Education Code (TEC), §28.0256, beginning with students enrolled in 12th grade during the 2021-2022 school year, each student must complete and submit a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) in order to graduate.
A Better 2024-25 FAFSA Form is now available at studentaid.gov. New and returning students who plan to attend college between July 1, 2025, and June 30, 2026, should complete the FAFSA Application as soon as possible. Federal Student Aid (FSA) uses social media to facilitate an ongoing dialogue around student financial aid in an interactive and engaging format.
There are also many helpful articles embedded within the website, including Aidan, a virtual assistant. You can access Aidan by selecting the owl icon in the bottom right-hand corner of any page.
